Python3 atan2() Function

Python3 Numbers


Description

The atan2() function returns the arc tangent of the given X and Y coordinates.


Syntax

Here is the syntax for the atan2() method:

import math

math.atan2(y, x)

Note: The atan2() function cannot be accessed directly; it requires importing the math module and calling this method via the math static object.


Parameters


Return Value

Returns the arc tangent of the given X and Y coordinates.


Example

The following example demonstrates the use of the atan2() method:

#!/usr/bin/python3
import math

print("atan2(-0.50,-0.50) : ", math.atan2(-0.50,-0.50))
print("atan2(0.50,0.50) : ", math.atan2(0.50,0.50))
print("atan2(5,5) : ", math.atan2(5,5))
print("atan2(-10,10) : ", math.atan2(-10,10))
print("atan2(10,20) : ", math.atan2(10,20))

The output of the above example is:

atan2(-0.50,-0.50) :  -2.356194490192345
atan2(0.50,0.50) :  0.7853981633974483
atan2(5,5) :  0.7853981633974483
atan2(-10,10) :  -0.7853981633974483
atan2(10,20) :  0.4636476090008061
