Everything about Atan2
Arctangent function with two arguments
In computing and mathematics, the function atan2 is the 2-argument arctangent. By definition, is the angle measure between the positive -axis and the ray from the origin to the point in the Cartesian plane, measured in radians with. Equivalently, is the argument of the complex number . Wikipedia →
