Converting between vectors and angles
direction :: Angle a => R2 -> aSource
Compute the direction of a vector, measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis as a fraction of a full turn. The zero vector is arbitrarily assigned the direction 0.
fromDirection :: Angle a => a -> R2Source
Convert an angle into a unit vector pointing in that direction.

perp v
is perpendicular to and has the same magnitude as v
.
In particular perp v == rotateBy (1/4) v
