jax.numpy.angle

jax.numpy.angle(z)

Return the angle of the complex argument.

LAX-backend implementation of angle(). Original docstring below.

Parameters

z (array_like) – A complex number or sequence of complex numbers.

Returns

angle – The counterclockwise angle from the positive real axis on the complex plane in the range (-pi, pi], with dtype as numpy.float64.

..versionchanged:: 1.16.0

This function works on subclasses of ndarray like ma.array.

Return type

ndarray or scalar

Notes

Although the angle of the complex number 0 is undefined, numpy.angle(0) returns the value 0.

Examples

>>> np.angle([1.0, 1.0j, 1+1j])               # in radians
array([ 0.        ,  1.57079633,  0.78539816]) # may vary
>>> np.angle(1+1j, deg=True)                  # in degrees
