Description#

The math::trig package defines a set of trigonomic and hyperbolic functions and their inverses. In addition it defines versions of the trigonomic functions that take arguments in degrees instead of radians.

For easy use these functions may be imported into the tcl::mathfunc namespace, so that they can be used directly in the expr command.

Functions#

The functions radian_reduced and degree_reduced return a reduced angle, in respectively radians and degrees, in the intervals [0, 2pi) and [0, 360):

::math::trig::radian_reduced angle#

Return the equivalent angle in the interval [0, 2pi).

float angle

Angle (in radians)

::math::trig::degree_reduced angle#

Return the equivalent angle in the interval [0, 360).

float angle

Angle (in degrees)

The following trigonomic functions are defined in addition to the ones defined in the expr command:

::math::trig::cosec angle#

Calculate the cosecant of the angle (1/cos(angle))

float angle

Angle (in radians)

::math::trig::sec angle#

Calculate the secant of the angle (1/sin(angle))

float angle

Angle (in radians)

::math::trig::cotan angle#

Calculate the cotangent of the angle (1/tan(angle))

float angle

Angle (in radians)

For these functions also the inverses are defined:

::math::trig::acosec value#

Calculate the arc cosecant of the value

float value

::math::trig::cosech value#

Calculate the hyperbolic cosecant of the value (1/sinh(value))

float value

Value of the argument

::math::trig::sech value#

Calculate the hyperbolic secant of the value (1/cosh(value))

Bugs, ideas, feedback#

This document, and the package it describes, will undoubtedly contain bugs and other problems. Please report such in the category math :: trig of the Tcllib Trackers [http://core.tcl.tk/tcllib/reportlist]. Please also report any ideas for enhancements you may have for either package and/or documentation.

When proposing code changes, please provide unified diffs, i.e the output of diff -u.

Note further that attachments are strongly preferred over inlined patches. Attachments can be made by going to the Edit form of the ticket immediately after its creation, and then using the left-most button in the secondary navigation bar.
