ATAND (The GNU Fortran Compiler) (original) (raw)
8.24 ATAND — Arctangent function, degrees ¶
Synopsis:
Description:
ATAND(X) computes the arctangent of X in degrees (inverse ofTAND — Tangent function, degrees).
Class:
Elemental function
Arguments:
| X | The type shall be REAL; if Y is present, X shall be REAL. |
|---|---|
| Y | The type and kind type parameter shall be the same as X. |
Return value:
The return value is of the same type and kind as X. The result is in degrees and lies in the range_-90 \leq \Re \atand(x) \leq 90_.
Example:
program test_atand real(8) :: x = 2.866_8 x = atand(x) end program test_atand
Specific names:

| ATAND(X) | REAL(4) X | REAL(4) | Fortran 2023 |
| DATAND(X) | REAL(8) X | REAL(8) | GNU extension |
