Semimajor axis of ellipse
Support for nonscalar input, including the syntax a
= majaxis(vec), will be removed in a future release.
a = majaxis(semiminor,e)
a = majaxis(vec)
a = majaxis(semiminor,e) computes the semimajor
axis of an ellipse (or ellipsoid of revolution) given the semiminor
axis and eccentricity. The input data can be scalar or matrices of
equal dimensions.
a = majaxis(vec) assumes a 2 element vector
(vec) is supplied, where vec =
[semiminor, e].
