)
A variant of atan.
Converts both arguments to doubles.
Returns the angle between the positive x-axis and the vector (b
,a
).
The result, in radians, is in the range -PI..PI.
If b
is positive, this is the same as atan(b/a)
.
The result is negative when a
is negative (including when a
is the
double -0.0).
If a
is equal to zero, the vector (b
,a
) is considered parallel to
the x-axis, even if b
is also equal to zero. The sign of b
determines
the direction of the vector along the x-axis.
Returns NaN if either argument is NaN.
