In input 2 (length), does 1 equal 2 bars? based off "A 45 degree line is a line with a slope of 1. The formula for slope is Rise divided by Run. A Line drawn across 2 bars is considered a span of 1 bar."

The study subtracts the Length from the calculation bar to determine the bar from which the angle is determined. In other words, a Length of 1 does use 2 bars (the current bar and the bar just before it).

just to confirm would a length of 2 be 3 bars or 4 bars?

The Length Input specifies the number of bars back to reference. Therefore, with a Length of 1 the angle will be calculated from the current bar being processed, and the bar before. A Length of 2 would mean that the angle will be calculated from the current bar being processed and 2 bars before.
