How to map atan2() to degrees 0-360
Solution using Modulo
A simple solution that catches all cases.
degrees = (degrees + 360) % 360; // +360 for implementations where mod returns negative numbers
Explanation
Positive: 1 to 180
If you mod any positive number between 1 and 180 by 360, you will get the exact same number you put in. Mod here just ensures these positive numbers are returned as the same value.
Negative: -180 to -1
Using mod here will return values in the range of 180 and 359 degrees.
Special cases: 0 and 360
Using mod means that 0 is returned, making this a safe 0-359 degrees solution.
Just add 360° if the answer from atan2 is less than 0°.
(x > 0 ? x : (2*PI + x)) * 360 / (2*PI)
