Convert angle units from dms format to degrees or radians
Syntax
anglout = dms2deg(anglin) angleout = dms2rad(anglin)
Description
anglout = dms2deg(anglin) converts angles input in degrees-minutes-seconds (dms) format to the equivalent measure in decimal degrees. anglout = dms2rad(anglin) converts angles input in degrees-minutes-seconds (dms) format to the equivalent measure in radians.Remarks
The inputs can be in degrees-minutes (dm) format, since numerically they look like dms format in which seconds are always zero.Example
dms2deg(430.00)
ans =
4.50
