Returns
Arc tangent of y/x.
- If either x or y is nan, the return value is nan.
- If x is 0 and y is 0, the return value is nan.
- If y is inf and x is inf, the return value is π/4.
- If y is -inf and x is inf, the return value is -π/4.
- If y is 1 and x is inf, the return value is 0.0.
- If y is inf and x is -inf, the return value is π3/4.
- If y is -inf and x is -inf, the return value is -π3/4.
- If y is 1 and x is -inf, the return value is π.
- If y is inf and x is 1, the return value is π/2.
- If y is -inf and x is 1, the return value is -π/2.
