| diamond.dualcents {diamonds} | R Documentation |
Creates x and y coordinates of center points of
the hexagon duals of a diamond partition, suitable for
points.
diamond.dualcents (b, d)
b |
list of coordinates of vertices of a diamond, as from
diamond.base |
d |
depth of recursion of partition; if d=1,
then no partition |
Centers are generated for "left-side" hexagons, assuming that diamonds are joined as in octahedron or icosahedron. See reference.
List with x and y components.
