acos

Operates on the elements of an input valarray, returning a valarray whose elements are equal to the arccosine of the elements of the input valarray.

template<class Type>
   valarray<Type> acos(
      const valarray<Type>& _Left
   );

Parameters

  • _Left
    The input valarray whose elements are to be operated on by the member function.

Return Value

A valarray whose elements are equal to the arccosine of the elements of the input valarray.

Remarks

The units of the returned elements are in radians.

The return value is a principal value between 0 and +pi that is consistent with the cosine value input.

Example

// valarray_acos.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <valarray>
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>

int main( )
{
   using namespace std;
   double pi = 3.14159265359;
   int i;

   valarray<double> va1 ( 9 );
   for ( i = 0 ; i < 9 ; i++ ) 
      va1 [ i ] =  0.25 * i - 1;
   valarray<double> va2 ( 9 );

   cout << "The initial valarray is:";
   for (i = 0 ; i < 9 ; i++ )
      cout << " " << va1 [ i ];
   cout << endl;

   va2 = acos ( va1 );
   cout << "The arccosine of the initial valarray is:\n";
   for (i = 0 ; i < 9 ; i++ )
      cout << setw(10) << va2 [ i ]
         << "  radians, which is  "
         << setw(11) << (180/pi) * va2 [ i ]
         << "  degrees" << endl;
}

The initial valarray is: -1 -0.75 -0.5 -0.25 0 0.25 0.5 0.75 1
The arccosine of the initial valarray is:
   3.14159  radians, which is          180  degrees
   2.41886  radians, which is       138.59  degrees
    2.0944  radians, which is          120  degrees
   1.82348  radians, which is      104.478  degrees
    1.5708  radians, which is           90  degrees
   1.31812  radians, which is      75.5225  degrees
    1.0472  radians, which is           60  degrees
  0.722734  radians, which is      41.4096  degrees
         0  radians, which is            0  degrees
