[[Category:Geometry]] {{task}} Finding the angle between two bearings is often confusing.[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16180595/find-the-angle-between-two-bearings]
;Task: Find the angle which is the result of the subtraction '''b2 - b1''', where '''b1''' and '''b2''' are the bearings.
Input bearings are expressed in the range '''-180''' to '''+180''' degrees.
The result is also expressed in the range '''-180''' to '''+180''' degrees.
Compute the angle for the following pairs:
- 20 degrees ('''b1''') and 45 degrees ('''b2''')
- -45 and 45
- -85 and 90
- -95 and 90
- -45 and 125
- -45 and 145
- 29.4803 and -88.6381
- -78.3251 and -159.036
;Optional extra: Allow the input bearings to be any (finite) value.
;Test cases:
- -70099.74233810938 and 29840.67437876723
- -165313.6666297357 and 33693.9894517456
- 1174.8380510598456 and -154146.66490124757
- 60175.77306795546 and 42213.07192354373

The labelled points are:
- Initialise write/not write and read input,
- Put in the range 0-360 if negative,
- Likewise if positive,
- Put in range -180 - 180,
- Check if write/not write step,
- If write find difference,
- Scale to -180 - 180,
- Write out and onto next pair.
Unfortunately, due to the lack of floating-point arithmetic in befunge, it is impossible to do the full challenge, however, given the integer truncations of these values it works.

Fortran
Rather than calculate angle differences and mess about with folding the results into ±180 and getting the sign right, why not use some mathematics? These days, trigonometrical functions are calculated swiftly by specialised hardware (well, microcode), and with the availability of functions working in degrees, matters are eased further nor is precision lost in converting from degrees to radians. So, the first step is to convert a bearing into an (x,y) unit vector via function CIS(t) = cos(t) + i.sin(t), which will handle all the annoyance of bearings specified in values above 360. Then, using the dot product of the two vectors allows the cosine of the angle to be known, and the cross product determines the sign.
However, this relies on the unit vectors being accurately so, and their subsequent dot product not exceeding one in size: given the rounding of results with the limited precision actual floating-point arithmetic, there may be problems. Proving that a calculation will not suffer these on a specific computer is difficult, especially as the desire for such a result may mean that any apparent pretext leading to that belief will be seized upon. Because calculations on the IBM pc and similar computers are conducted with 80-bit floating-point arithmetic, rounding errors for 64-bit results are likely to be small, but past experience leads to a "fog of fear" about the precise behaviour of floating-point arithmetic.
As it happens, the test data did not provoke any objections from the ACOSD function, but even so, a conversion to using ''arctan'' instead of ''arccos'' to recover angles would be safer. By using the four-quadrant ''arctan(x,y)'' function, the sign of the angle difference is also delivered and although that result could be in 0°-360° it turns out to be in ±180° as desired. On the other hand, the library of available functions did not include an arctan for complex parameters, so the complex number Z had to be split into its real and imaginary parts, thus requiring two appearances and to avoid repeated calculation, a temporary variable Z is needed. Otherwise, the statement could have been just T = ATAN2D(Z1*CONJG(Z2))
and the whole calculation could be effected in one statement, T = ATAN2D(CIS(90 - B1)*CONJG(CIS(90 - B2)))
And, since ''cis(t) = exp(i.t)'', T = ATAN2D(EXP(CMPLX(0,90 - B1))*CONJG(EXP(CMPLX(0,90 - B2))))
- although using the arithmetic statement function does seem less intimidating.
The source style is F77 (even using the old-style arithmetic statement function) except for the convenience of generic functions taking the type of their parameters to save on the bother of DCMPLX instead of just CMPLX, etc. Floating-point constants in the test data are specified with ~D0, the exponential form that signifies double precision otherwise they would be taken as single precision values. Some compilers offer an option stating that all floating-point constants are to be taken as double precision. REAL8 precision amounts to about sixteen decimal digits, so some of the supplied values will not be accurately represented, unless something beyond REAL8 is available.

'''Basic task solution:'''
One feature of this solution is that if you can rely on the input bearings being in the range -180 to 180, you don't have to use math.Mod. Another feature is the bearing type and method syntax.

def angleDifferenceB(double b1, double b2) {
((b2 - b1) % 360.0 - 540.0) % 360.0 + 180.0

NOTE: We could ADD 540 and SUBTRACT 180 instead (as did many others, notably [[Angle_difference_between_two_bearings#360_Assembly|360_Assembly]], [[Angle_difference_between_two_bearings#NewLISP|NewLISP]], [[Angle_difference_between_two_bearings#Racket|Racket]], and [[Angle_difference_between_two_bearings#REXX|REXX]]).

Each bearing will be stored in an object that inherits methods to accomplish all parts of the task: accept a new number of degrees, automatically adjusting to the range [-180, 180]; construct new bearing objects; subtract another bearing from itself and return the difference; construct a list of new bearing objects given a list of arbitrary degree sizes; and format the number of degrees into a modest human-readable format. Bearings will be zero-initialized by default if no degree size is provided.
