std::atan(std::valarray)

Defined in header <valarray>
template< class T >
valarray<T> atan( const valarray<T>& va );

For each element in va computes arc tangent of the value of the element.

Parameters

va - value array to apply the operation to

Return value

Value array containing arc tangents of the values in va.

Notes

Unqualified function (atan) is used to perform the computation. If such function is not available, std::atan is used due to argument-dependent lookup.

The function can be implemented with the return type different from std::valarray. In this case, the replacement type has the following properties:

Possible implementation

template< class T >
valarray<T> atan( const valarray<T>& va )
{
    valarray<T> other = va;
    for (T &i : other)
        i = atan(i);
 
    return other; // proxy object may be returned
}

Example

#include <algorithm>
#include <cmath>
#include <iostream>
#include <valarray>
 
auto show = [](char const* title, const std::valarray<float>& va) {
    std::cout << title << " :";
    std::for_each(std::begin(va), std::end(va), 
        [](const float x) { std::cout << "  " << std::fixed << x; });
    std::cout << '\n';
};
 
int main()
{
    const std::valarray<float> x = {.1f, .3f, .6f, .9f};
    const std::valarray<float> f = std::atan(x);
    const std::valarray<float> g = std::tan(f);
 
    show("x          ", x);
    show("f = atan(x)", f);
    show("g = tan(f) ", g);
}

Output:

x           :  0.100000  0.300000  0.600000  0.900000
f = atan(x) :  0.099669  0.291457  0.540420  0.732815
g = tan(f)  :  0.100000  0.300000  0.600000  0.900000
