SDL_atanf - Man Page

Compute the arc tangent of x .

Header File

Defined in SDL3/SDL_stdinc.h

Synopsis

#include "SDL3/SDL.h"

float SDL_atanf(float x);

Description

The definition of y=atan(x) is x=tan(y) .

Domain: -INF<=x<=INF Range: -Pi/2<=y<=Pi/2 This function operates on single-precision floating point values, use

SDL_atan
for dboule-precision floats.

To calculate the arc tangent of y / x, use SDL_atan2f .

This function may use a different approximation across different versions, platforms and configurations. i.e, it can return a different value given the same input on different machines or operating systems, or if SDL is updated.

Function Parameters

x

floating point value.

Return Value

Returns arc tangent of of x in radians, or 0 if x=0 .

Thread Safety

It is safe to call this function from any thread.

Availability

This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
