atan(x): Trigonometric ArcTangent

Trigonometric arctangent (inverse arctangent) function.

Declaración

Sintaxis

retval = atan(x)
elemental real(p) function atan(x)
elemental complex(p) function atan(x)

Argumentos

x the input value, can be real or complex; less than or equal to 1.

Valores devueltos

The returned value has the kind of the input value and TYPE may be real or complex.

Descripción

atan(x) computes the arctangent of the argument x.

The arc tangent is the inverse function of the arctangent function. It is commonly used in trigonometry to find the angle when the lengths of the opposite side of a right triangle and base are known, i.e., perpendicular and base length.

Tipos

Supported argument types float, double, complex float, complex double.

interface atan
    module procedure satan, datan, catan, zatan
end interface

contains

interface
    elemental real(sp) function satan(x)
    real(sp), intent(in) :: x
    end function

    elemental real(dp) function datan(x)
    real(dp), intent(in) :: x
    end function

    elemental complex(sp) function catan(x)
    complex(sp), intent(in) :: x
    end function

    elemental complex(dp) function zatan(x)
    complex(dp), intent(in) :: x
    end function
end interface

Ejemplos

program intrinsics_atan
