To calculate the average length of line segments between intersections within the circle, you can follow these steps:
- After you have calculated the intersection points of the lines within the circle, for each pair of intersections on the same line, calculate the line segment length. Sample code for the same is given below:
% Calculate line segment lengths
segment_lengths = [];
for i = 1:numbLines
% Find intersections on the current line
line_intersections = [];
for j = 1:length(x_int)
if abs(slope(i) * x_int(j) + ycept(i) - y_int(j)) < 1e-6
line_intersections = [line_intersections; x_int(j), y_int(j)];
end
end
% Sort intersections along the line
line_intersections = sortrows(line_intersections);
% Calculate segments between intersections
for k = 1:size(line_intersections, 1) - 1
seg_length = sqrt((line_intersections(k+1, 1) - line_intersections(k, 1))^2 + ...
(line_intersections(k+1, 2) - line_intersections(k, 2))^2);
segment_lengths = [segment_lengths; seg_length];
end
end
- Compute the average length of these segments.
% Average segment length
if ~isempty(segment_lengths)
average_segment_length = mean(segment_lengths);
else
average_segment_length = 0;
end
Hope this helps!
