NAME
atan, atanf, atanl - arc tangent function SYNOPSIS
c99 [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ] #include <math.h> double atan(double x); float atanf(float x); long double atanl(long double x); DESCRIPTION
These functions compute the principal value of the arc tangent of x. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, these functions return the arc tangent of x in the range [-pi/2,pi/2] radians. If x is NaN, NaN is returned. If x is +-0, x is returned. If x is +-Inf, +-pi/2 is returned. ERRORS
No errors are defined. ATTRIBUTES
