ATAN(3) 						   BSD Library Functions Manual 						   ATAN(3)

NAME
atan -- arc tangent function of one variable SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> double atan(double x); long double atanl(long double x); float atanf(float x); DESCRIPTION
The atan() function computes the principal value of the arc tangent of x. The result is in the range [-pi/2, +pi/2]. SPECIAL VALUES
atan(+-0) returns +-0. atan(+-infinity) returns +-pi/2 VECTOR OPERATIONS
If you need to apply the atan() function to SIMD vectors or arrays, using the following functions provided by the Accelerate.framework may give significantly better performance: #include <Accelerate/Accelerate.h> vFloat vatanf(vFloat x); void vvatanf(float *y, const float *x, const int *n); void vvatan(double *y, const double *x, const int *n); SEE ALSO
acos(3), asin(3), atan2(3), cos(3), cosh(3), sin(3), sinh(3), tan(3), tanh(3), math(3) The atan() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:2011. BSD
