Random toroidal shift on a point data set
Description
Perform a random toroidal shift on a point data set
Usage
rtor.shift(pts,rect)
Arguments
pts |
The point data set to shift |
rect |
A rectangle defining the region for the toroidal map. If not given,
the bounding box of |
Details
The planar region defined by rect
is assumed connected at its top and bottom edges, and at its left and
right sides. A random shift is applied to the
points and the resulting set of points returned.
Value
A point data set like pts
, but after application of a random toroidal
shift along the x and y axes.
