Cotangent

$NPM version$ $Build Status$ $Coverage Status$

Evaluate the cotangent of a number.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-base-special-cot

Usage

var cot = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-cot' );

cot( x )

Evaluates the cotangent of x (in radians).

var v = cot( 0.0 );
// returns Infinity

v = cot( 3.141592653589793/2.0 );
// returns ~0.0

v = cot( -3.141592653589793/4.0 );
// returns ~-1.0

v = cot( 3.141592653589793/4.0 );
// returns ~1.0

v = cot( NaN );
// returns NaN

Examples

var linspace = require( '@stdlib/array-base-linspace' );
var PI = require( '@stdlib/constants-float64-pi' );
var cot = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-cot' );

var x = linspace( -PI/2.0, PI/2.0, 100 );

var i;
for ( i = 0; i < x.length; i++ ) {
    console.log( cot( x[ i ] ) );
}

C APIs

Usage

#include "stdlib/math/base/special/cot.h"

stdlib_base_cot( x )

Evaluates the cotangent of x (in radians).

double out = stdlib_base_cot( 0.0 );
// returns Infinity

out = stdlib_base_cot( 3.141592653589793 / 2.0 );
// returns ~0.0

The function accepts the following arguments:

x: [in] double input value.

double stdlib_base_cot( const double x );

Examples

#include "stdlib/math/base/special/cot.h"
#include <stdio.h>

int main( void ) {
    const double x[] = { 0.523, 0.785, 1.047, 3.14 };

    double y;
    int i;
    for ( i = 0; i < 4; i++ ) {
        y = stdlib_base_cot( x[ i ] );
        printf( "cot(%lf) = %lf\n", x[ i ], y );
    }
}

Notice

This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
