acot - Inverse cotangent; result in radians

Syntax

Y = acot(X)

Description

Y = acot(X) returns the inverse cotangent (arccotangent) for each element of X.

The acot function operates element-wise on arrays. The function's domains and ranges include complex values. All angles are in radians.

Examples

Graph the inverse cotangent over the domains –2π ≤ x < 0 and 0 < x ≤ 2π.

x1 = -2*pi:pi/30:-0.1;
x2 = 0.1:pi/30:2*pi;
plot(x1,acot(x1),x2,acot(x2)), grid on

Definitions

The inverse cotangent can be defined as
