Example
The following example shows the usage of atan() method.
Live Demo#!/usr/bin/python import math print "atan(0.64) : ", math.atan(0.64) print "atan(0) : ", math.atan(0) print "atan(10) : ", math.atan(10) print "atan(-1) : ", math.atan(-1) print "atan(1) : ", math.atan(1)
When we run above program, it produces following result −
atan(0.64) : 0.569313191101 atan(0) : 0.0 atan(10) : 1.4711276743 atan(-1) : -0.785398163397 atan(1) : 0.785398163397
