how to calculate the parameter values of a curve edge in mesh file

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi guys,
I exported a mesh file from comsol. Can anyone tell me how to calculate the parameter values of a curve edge at two endpoints, respectively? Below is the mesh data of a circle:
