arccos

Returns the inverse cosine of x.

Syntax:

arccos(x)


Argument Description
x The angle (in radians) to return the inverse cosine of.


Returns: Real


Description

Returns the inverse cosine of x, in that if cos(val)=n, arccos(n)=val, and the resulting number will be between pi and 0.

NOTE: This will only accept a number between -1 and 1 (anything else will throw an error).


Example:

val = arccos(0);

This will set val to pi/2.
