Atn(number)
Description
Atn returns the arctangent of a number in radians. The required parameter, number, is any numeric expression.
To convert degrees to radians, multiply degrees by π/180. To convert radians to degrees, multiply radians by 180/π.
Example
REM Atn Example 'Atn calculates the arctangent of a number DIM Pi Pi = Atn(1) * 4 PRINT "The value of pi is " & Pi
Output
The value of pi is 3.141593
