How to find hourly position of Sun?

What is the best way to find hourly position of the Sun? Is it by outputting azimuth and altitude angle (code below), which will give horizontal and vertical location of the Sun or there is some other way of doing it?

Output:Variable,*,Site Solar Azimuth Angle,hourly; !- Zone Average [deg]
Output:Variable,*,Site Solar Altitude Angle,hourly; !- Zone Average [deg]
