Covercosine

Compute the coversed cosine of a single-precision floating-point number (in radians).

The coversed cosine is defined as

Installation

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

Usage

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

covercosf( x )

Computes the coversed cosine of a single-precision floating-point number (in radians).

var v = covercosf( 0.0 );
// returns 1.0

v = covercosf( 3.141592653589793/2.0 );
// returns 2.0

v = covercosf( -3.141592653589793/6.0 );
// returns 0.5

Examples

var uniform = require( '@stdlib/random-array-uniform' );
var logEachMap = require( '@stdlib/console-log-each-map' );
var TWO_PI = require( '@stdlib/constants-float32-two-pi' );
var covercosf = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-covercosf' );

var opts = {
    'dtype': 'float32'
};
var x = uniform( 100, 0.0, TWO_PI, opts );

logEachMap( 'covercosf(%0.4f) = %0.4f', x, covercosf );

C APIs

Usage

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

stdlib_base_covercosf( x )

Computes the coversed cosine of a single-precision floating-point number (in radians).

float out = stdlib_base_covercosf( 0.0f );
// returns 1.0f

out = stdlib_base_covercosf( 3.141592653589793f / 2.0f );
// returns 2.0f

The function accepts the following arguments:

• x: [in] float input value.

float stdlib_base_covercosf( const float x );

Examples

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

int main( void ) {
    const float x[] = { 0.0f, 0.523f, 0.785f, 1.047f, 3.14f };

    float y;
    int i;
    for ( i = 0; i < 5; i++ ) {
        y = stdlib_base_covercosf( x[ i ] );
        printf( "covercosf(%f) = %f\n", x[ i ], y );
    }
}
