Bearing (bidirectional communication)

Animation
Technical
This is an example of _bidirectional communication_ of JSXGraph with other elements of the web page. 1. One can type a new value for the angle into the text box and 2. see the actual value of the angle in the same text box when dragging the glider. 
<input type="text" id="degrees">
<button onclick="setDirection()">set direction</button>
// Define the id of your board in BOARDID

const board = JXG.JSXGraph.initBoard(BOARDID, {
    axis: true,
    boundingbox: [-2, 1.5, 2, -1.5],
    keepaspectratio: true
});
var c = board.create('circle', [
    [0, 0], 1
], {fixed:true});
var g = board.create('glider', [-1, 0.5, c], {
    name: 'drag me'
}); // global variable
var p0 = board.create('point', [1, 0], {visible: false});
var p1 = board.create('point', [0, 0], {visible: false});
var a = board.create('angle', [p0, p1, g], {withLabel: false, radius: 0.35});
g.on('drag', function() {
    document.getElementById('degrees').value = (Math.atan2(g.Y(), g.X()) * 180 / Math.PI).toFixed(0);
});
