@c ---------------------------------------------------------------------- @node atan, math @subheading Syntax @example #include double atan(double x); @end example @subheading Description This function computes the angle, in the range @code{[-Pi/2..Pi/2]} radians, whose tangent is @var{x}. @subheading Return Value The arc tangent, in radians, of @var{x}. If @var{x} is a @code{NaN}, the return value is @code{NaN} and @code{errno} is set to @code{EDOM}. If @var{x} is a positive or negative @code{Inf}, the return value is equal to positive or negative @code{Pi/2}, respectively, and @code{errno} is left unchanged. @subheading Portability @portability ansi, posix
