Find the shortest distance (magnitude) and direction (sign) from (a) to (b) in domain (start) to (end).

  (\ / start)               (\ / end)
    |-a                 b<----|

Knowing the shortest distance is useful with wrapped domains to solve problems such as determing the closest object to a given point, or determing whether turning left or turning right is the shortest route to get from angle 10 degrees to angle 350 degrees (clearly in a 0-360 degree domain, turning left 20 degrees is quicker than turning right 340 degrees).

The value returned holds the distance and the direction from value a to value b. For instance in the above example it would return -20. i.e. subtract 20 from current value (10) to reach target wrapped value (350).

Since:: 2.4, DALi version 1.0.0

Parameters:

a	the current value
b	the target value
start	the start of the domain
end	the end of the domain

Returns:: the shortest direction (the sign) and distance (the magnitude)

Note:: Assumes both (a) and (b) are already within the domain (start) to (end).

Extracts the sign of a number.

Since:: 2.4, DALi version 1.0.0

Parameters:

[in] value The value we want to extract the sign

Returns:: -1 for negative values, +1 for positive values and 0 if value is 0

float Dali::WrapInDomain	(	float	x,
		float	start,
		float	end
	)

Wrap x in domain (start) to (end).

This works like a floating point version of the % modulo operation. But with an offset (start).

For instance a domain is specified as: start: 2 end: 8

   2                         8
 (\ / start)               (\ / end)
   |----x                    |

The value x will be confined to this domain. If x is below 2 e.g. 0, then it is wrapped to 6. If x is above or equal to 8 e.g. 8.1 then it is wrapped to 2.1.

Domain wrapping is useful for various problems from calculating positions in a space that repeats, to computing angles that range from 0 to 360.

Since:: 2.4, DALi version 1.0.0

Parameters:

[in]	x	the point to be wrapped within the domain
[in]	start	The start of the domain
[in]	end	The end of the domain

Returns:: the wrapped value over the domain (start) (end)

Note:: If start = end (i.e. size of domain 0), then wrapping will not occur and result will always be equal to start.
