deg2dms, deg2dm

Convert angle units from degrees to dms or dm format

Syntax

• anglout = deg2dms(anglin)
  angleout = deg2dm(anglin)
  

Description

anglout = deg2dms(anglin) converts angles input in degrees to the equivalent measure in the degrees-minutes-seconds (dms) format.

angleout = deg2dm(anglin) converts angles input in degrees to the equivalent measure in the degrees-minutes (dm) format. This is the dms format, properly rounded to just degrees and minutes.

Example

• deg2dms(23.561)
  ans =
         2333.40
  
  deg2dm(23.561)
  ans =
         2334.00
