Operands
| Operand | Description |
|---|---|
| S | The first operand. Entries are REAL data registers or constants. This is the value to calculate the arctangent value of. The value must be tangent data. The value range is -1.7014118e+38 ~ 3.4028237e+38 (2-127 ~ 2128). |
| D | The second operand. Entries are only REAL data registers. The arctangent is saved as a REAL data register. |
Notice
Error Flag (F11.0) Notice
The error flag, F11.0, will be ON for one scan when the address of the data register assigned by @D exceeds the range of the data register, D. The range of the data register, D, is dependent on the CPU type.
F11.0 turns ON when the value of the data for the calculation exceeds the data register assigned to S or D.
When the value assigned to S exceeds its range, the value, Quite Not-a-Number (-1.#QNAN0), is stored in the data register D.
Instruction Result
The value resulting from the ATAN or ATANP instruction is saved as a radian.
The conversion for radians is:
Radians = Degrees × ( π⁄180 )
