Calculate the tangent of an angle
#include <math.h>
double tan( double x );
float tanf( float x );
- x
- The angle, in radians, for which you want to compute the tangent.
libm
Use the -l m option to
qcc
to link against this library.
These functions compute the tangent (specified in radians) of x.
A large magnitude argument may yield a result with little or no significance.
The tangent value.
If x is NAN or infinity, NAN is returned.

If an error occurs, these functions return 0, but this is also a valid
mathematical result.
If you want to check for errors, set
errno
to 0, call the function, and then check errno again.
These functions don't change errno if no errors occurred. |
#include <stdio.h>
