Arctan()

Generic trig functions.

ARCTAN(x) x=Generic Arctangent in radians.

example:

	# print result in degrees
	y = Arctan(1000.0) * 180 / $pi

	#take the arctan of all elements in an array
	a = Dimensions(10)	# create a 10 element array
	fill a 0.5		# Set all elements to 0.5
	y = Arctan(a)

Note: These functions can be applied to all numeric types (including arrays & workspaces).

Arctan()

These function returns an Arctangent value in radians.

Parameters:

X (Generic)

A single number, array or workspace containing the values to which the appropriate trig function is to be applied. Angles must be specified in radians. Undefined values passed to this function will be returned as an undefined result.

RESULT = (Generic)

Angle(s) in radians.
