double fc2d(double x, double y)
A double-precision floating-point value in the range -511 to 512.
Pixels are usually addressed by their cartesian coordinates [x,y], but FilterMeister also allows the use of polar coordinates, and provides a set of functions for conversion between the two systems. Polar coordinates are expressed as [d,m], where 'd' represents the 'direction' to the pixel from the origin [0,0], and 'm' is the 'magnitude' of the distance from the origin. The c2d() function returns the polar coordinate direction 'd' for the pixel at [x,y], relative to the top left corner of the image. A 'd' value of 0 represents the direction to the right along the x-axis (ie y=0); a value of 256 represents the direction downward along the y-axis (ie x=0); a value of 512 represents the direction to the left along the x-axis (where y=0); and a value of -256 represents the upward direction on the y-axis (where x=0). Naturally, intermediate values represent the intermediate angles.
Note that there is a bug in fc2d, so that it doesn't give exactly the same results as c2d.
