jax.numpy.atan

jax.numpy.atan(x, /)

Trigonometric inverse tangent, element-wise.

LAX-backend implementation of numpy.arctan().

Original docstring below.

The inverse of tan, so that if y = tan(x) then x = arctan(y).

Parameters:

x (array_like)

Returns:

out – Out has the same shape as x. Its real part is in [-pi/2, pi/2] (arctan(+/-inf) returns +/-pi/2). This is a scalar if x is a scalar.

Return type:

ndarray or scalar
