arctan_rad¶
Description¶
Computes the arc tangent of the input. The result is a float64, specified in degrees, in the range [-$\pi$/2, $\pi$/2]
Arguments
- input (required) Ratio to find the arc tangent of, float64. 
Return type¶
float64
Domain¶
This is a scalar function (calculates a single output value for a single input row.)

Usage¶
arctan_rad(input)
| Argument | Type | Optional | Repeatable | Restrictions | 
|---|---|---|---|---|
| input | float64 | no | no | none | 
Examples¶
make_col arctan:arctan_rad(ratio)
Create a column ‘arctan’ with the result of the arc tangent of column ‘ratio’
The resulting column will be in radians.
Given the below column ratio, arctan_rad produces the below column arctan.
| ratio | arctan | 
|---|---|
| -∞ | -π / 2 | 
| -√3 | -π / 3 | 
| -1 | -π / 4 | 
| 0 | 0 | 
| 1 | π / 4 | 
| -√3 | π / 3 | 
| ∞ | π / 2 |
