Abstract:
1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein an information processing program to be executed by a computer in an information processing device for performing a predetermined information process based on a tilt angle of an input device that can be rotated to any tilt about a predetermined axis, the information processing program comprising instructions causing the computer to: calculate a tilt angle representing the tilt of the input device; determine whether the calculated tilt angle has transitioned across a boundary at which an upper limit value and a lower limit value of the tilt angle adjoin each other; and if the tilt angle has transitioned across the boundary, correct the tilt angle used in the predetermined information process to a predetermined value that is on one side of the boundary on which the tilt angle was before crossing the boundary, wherein: the determination of whether the calculated tilt angle has transitioned across a boundary determines whether the calculated tilt angle has transitioned from a first range to a second range, where the first range is a range from a first limit value of the tilt angle to a predetermined first angle that is closer to the first limit value than to a second limit value of the tilt angle, and the second range is a range from the second limit value of the tilt angle to a predetermined second angle that is closer to the second limit value than to the first limit value; and if the tilt angle has transitioned from the first range to the second range, the correction corrects the tilt angle used in the predetermined information process to a predetermined value within the first range.
