Description
Directed bench angle difference on a 360-degree circle under an explicit direction convention.
Movement research distinguishes elapsed time, active time, cycle phase, measured force, and assessment-score conventions. Normalizing or remapping these quantities can help compare records when their units and definitions agree. A local arithmetic term does not by itself validate a functional assessment or an exercise program.
Directed bench angle difference on a 360-degree circle under an explicit direction convention.
When to use this tool
Use Joint Angle Wrap Direction Token when you need this motion, timing, force, annotation, or score-mapping component for supplied research records.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter fromDegrees, toDegrees, clockwise. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read directedDegrees. Use the output convention below.
Return the nonnegative remainder modulo 360 of fromDegrees-toDegrees if clockwise, otherwise toDegrees-fromDegrees.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| fromDegrees | From Degrees | Required. Finite number. |
| toDegrees | To Degrees | Required. Finite number. |
| clockwise | Clockwise | Required. Boolean. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| directedDegrees | Directed Degrees | Required. Finite number. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- Inputs and output are degrees. Direction is an arithmetic convention, and a zero result cannot distinguish no turn from whole turns; anatomy and safe joint motion are not assessed.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Signed zero is exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use the intended assessment or motion-analysis protocol with verified timing, units, and event annotations. A complete interpretation needs the relevant measurement properties and task context beyond this local calculation.
