cosl) is called. Otherwise, if the argument has integer type or the type double, (2) (cos) is called. Otherwise, (1) (cosf) is called. If the argument is complex, then the macro invokes the corresponding complex function (ccosf, ccos, ccosl).|
The functions (4-6) are declared if and only if the implementation predefines |

Parameters
| arg | - | floating-point value representing angle in radians |
Return value
If no errors occur, the cosine of arg (cos(arg)) in the range [-1 ; +1], is returned.
|
The result may have little or no significance if the magnitude of arg is large. |
(until 哋它亢99) |
If a domain error occurs, an implementation-defined value is returned (NaN where supported).
If a range error occurs due to underflow, the correct result (after rounding) is returned.
Error handling
Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling.
If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559):
- if the argument is ±0, the result is 1.0;
- if the argument is ±∞, NaN is returned and FE_INVALID is raised;
- if the argument is NaN, NaN is returned.
Notes
The case where the argument is infinite is not specified to be a domain error in C, but it is defined as a domain error in POSIX.
Example
#include <errno.h> #include <fenv.h> #include <math.h> #include <stdio.h> #ifndef __GNUC__ #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON #endif int main(void) { const double pi = acos(-1); // typical usage printf("cos(pi/3) = %f\n", cos(pi / 3)); printf("cos(pi/2) = %f\n", cos(pi / 2)); printf("cos(-3*pi/4) = %f\n", cos(-3 * pi / 4)); // special values printf("cos(+0) = %f\n", cos(0.0)); printf("cos(-0) = %f\n", cos(-0.0)); // error handling feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT); printf("cos(INFINITY) = %f\n", cos(INFINITY)); if (fetestexcept(FE_INVALID)) puts(" FE_INVALID raised"); }
Possible output:
cos(pi/3) = 0.500000
cos(pi/2) = 0.000000
cos(-3*pi/4) = -0.707107
cos(+0) = 1.000000
cos(-0) = 1.000000
cos(INFINITY) = -nan
