Description

The tensor is contracted with the direction in every index,

\[ q = T_{i_1 i_2 \ldots i_d} v_{i_1} v_{i_2} \cdots v_{i_d}. \]

Syntax

q = directionalMagnitude(T,v)

Magnitude in the directions v.

S2F = directionalMagnitude(T)

Magnitude as a function on the sphere.

Input

`T`	`tensor`
`v`	`direction (vector3d / Miller)`

Output

`q`	`magnitude of a tensor in direction v`
`S2F`	`S2FunHarmonicSym`
