COT macro
The COT
macro
is available only in HCL®
Campaign.
Syntax
COT(data [, units_keyword])
Parameters
data
The
numerical values to compute the cotangent of. This can be a constant
value, a column, a cell range, or an expression evaluating to any
of the above. For the format definition of data
,
see the "Macro Function Parameters" section in the chapter in this
guide for your HCL
product.
units_keyword
This optional keyword determines whether the input values and results are interpreted as degrees or radians. Select one of the following:
RADIAN
- Performs the calculations in radians (default)
DEGREE
- Performs the calculations in degrees
If this parameter is
not specified, the default is radians. (To convert from radians to
degrees, divide by PI
and multiply by 180.)
For more details on using keywords in HCL Campaign, see Format Specifications.
Description
COT
calculates
the cotangent of values in the specified data range. The cotangent
is the reciprocal of the tangent. COT
returns one
new column for each input column, each containing the cotangent of
numbers in the corresponding input column.
COT
returns the largest
32-bit floating-point number.Examples
TEMP = COT(90) or TEMP = COT(90,
0) or TEMP = COT(90, RADIAN)
Returns a new column named |
TEMP = COT(0) Returns
a new column named |
TEMP = COT(V1, 1) or TEMP = COT(V1,
DEGREE) Creates a new column named |
TEMP = COT(V1:V3, 1) Creates
three new columns named |
TEMP = COT(V1[10:20])
Creates a new column named |
TEMP = COT(V1[1:5]:V2)
Creates two new columns named |
