tor.shift

Toroidal shift on a point data set

Description

Perform a toroidal shift on a point data set

Usage

tor.shift(pts,xsh=0.0,ysh=0.0,rect)

Arguments

`pts`	The point data set to shift
`xsh`	Amount to shift along the x-axis
`ysh`	Amount to shift along the y-axis
`rect`	A rectangle defining the region for the toroidal map. If not given, the bounding box of `pts` is used.

Details

The planar region defined by rect is assumed connected at its top and bottom edges, and at its left and right sides. A shift of xsh and ysh is applied to the points and the resulting set of points returned.

Value

A point data set like pts, but after application of a toroidal shift along the x and y axes.
