The standard way to do this is to use modulus. This answer by sschuberth shows how to do this in C/C++.
Here's a Python implementation and test. The code is simpler in Python, because in Python a % b
always has the same sign as b
.
The test code loops through all pairs of angles from 0 to 360 degrees in steps of 60, for a
and b
, testing all angles x
from 0 to 360 degrees in steps of 30. The sector starts at a
and sweeps through to b
. Thus the sector (60, 120) contains 60°, but (120, 60) contains 300°.
If x
is within the sector (including the endpoints) it gets added to the result
list.
def in_angle_interval(x, a, b):
return (x - a) % 360 <= (b - a) % 360
# test
for a in range(0, 420, 60):
for b in range(0, 420, 60):
result = [x for x in range(0, 390, 30) if in_angle_interval(x, a, b)]
print('{:3}-{:3} {}'.format(a, b, result))

coef = [[1,22], [2,24], [359,15], [360,21]]
print(coef)
for x in range(0, 361):
sel = [coe for coe in coef if in_angle_interval(x, coe[0], coe[1])]
if sel:
print('{:3} {}'.format(x, sel))
