curling lines from tracking particles

chris elliott
I have tracks of fly larvae moving in either (approximately) straight  
lines, or with a tendency to go round in circles. Mtrack2 work great  
to get the x/y coordinates of their path.

  Is there any good way to measure the circularity or helical  
characateristics, in a way that is independent of how long I track  
them for?

thanks
chris
