al_fixatan(3)                                                    al_fixatan(3)

NAME
       al_fixatan - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS

              #include <allegro5/allegro.h>

              al_fixed al_fixatan(al_fixed x)

DESCRIPTION
       This function finds the inverse tangent of a value using a lookup
       table.  The input value must be a fixed point radian.  The inverse
       tangent is the value whose tangent is x.

       Example:

                  al_fixed result;

                  /* Sets result to binary angle 13. */
                  result = al_fixatan(al_ftofix(0.326));

RETURN VALUE
       Returns the inverse tangent of a fixed point value, measured as a fixed
       point binary format angle.
