NAME¶
std::atan,std::atanf,std::atanl - std::atan,std::atanf,std::atanl
Synopsis¶
Defined in header <cmath>
float atan ( float arg );
float atanf( float arg ); (since C++11)
double atan ( double arg ); (1) (2)
long double atan ( long double arg );
long double atanl( long double arg ); (3) (since C++11)
double atan ( IntegralType arg ); (4) (since C++11)
1-3) Computes the principal value of the arc tangent of arg
4) A set of overloads or a function template accepting an argument of any
integral
type. Equivalent to 2) (the argument is cast to double).
Parameters¶
arg - value of a floating-point or Integral type
Return value¶
If no errors occur, the arc tangent of arg (arctan(arg)) in the range [-
π
2
, +
π
2
] radians, is returned.
If a range error occurs due to underflow, the correct result (after rounding)
is
returned.
Error handling¶
Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling.
If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC
60559),
* If the argument is ±0, it is returned unmodified
* If the argument is +∞, +π/2 is returned
* If the argument is -∞, -π/2 is returned
* if the argument is NaN, NaN is returned
Notes¶
POSIX specifies that in case of underflow, arg is returned
unmodified, and if that
is not supported, an implementation-defined value no greater than DBL_MIN,
FLT_MIN,
and LDBL_MIN is returned.
Examples¶
// Run this code
#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
int main()
{
std::cout << "atan(1) = " << atan(1) << "
4*atan(1) = " << 4*atan(1) << '\n';
// special values
std::cout << "atan(Inf) = " << atan(INFINITY)
<< " 2*atan(Inf) = " << 2*atan(INFINITY) << '\n'
<< "atan(-0.0) = " << atan(-0.0) << '\n'
<< "atan(+0.0) = " << atan(0) << '\n';
}
Output:¶
atan(1) = 0.785398 4*atan(1) = 3.14159
atan(Inf) = 1.5708 2*atan(Inf) = 3.14159
atan(-0.0) = -0
atan(+0.0) = 0
