iterAtan2
Create an iterator which iteratively computes the angle in the plane (in radians) between the positive x-axis and the ray from
(0,0)
to the point(x,y)
.
Usage
var iterAtan2 = require( '@stdlib/math/iter/special/atan2' );
iterAtan2( y, x )
Returns an iterator which iteratively computes the angle in the plane (in radians) between the positive x-axis and the ray from (0,0)
to the point (x,y)
.
var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array/to-iterator' );
var x = array2iterator( [ 2.0, 2.0, -1.0 ] );
var y = array2iterator( [ 2.0, 6.0, -1.0 ] );
var it = iterAtan2( y, x );
// returns <Object>
var r = it.next().value;
// returns ~0.785
r = it.next().value;
// returns ~1.249
r = it.next().value;
// returns ~-2.356
// ...
The returned iterator protocol-compliant object has the following properties:
- next: function which returns an iterator protocol-compliant object containing the next iterated value (if one exists) assigned to a
value
property and adone
property having aboolean
value indicating whether the iterator is finished. - return: function which closes an iterator and returns a single (optional) argument in an iterator protocol-compliant object.
If provided a numeric value as an iterator
argument, the value is broadcast as an infinite iterator which always returns the provided value.
var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array/to-iterator' );
var y = array2iterator( [ 2.0, 6.0 ] );
var it = iterAtan2( y, 2.0 );
// returns <Object>
var v = it.next().value;
// returns ~0.785
v = it.next().value;
// returns ~1.249
var bool = it.next().done;
// returns true
Notes
- If an iterated value is non-numeric (including
NaN
), the returned iterator returnsNaN
. If non-numeric iterated values are possible, you are advised to provide aniterator
which type checks and handles non-numeric values accordingly. - The length of the returned iterator is equal to the length of the shortest provided iterator. In other words, the returned iterator ends once one of the provided iterators ends.
- If an environment supports
Symbol.iterator
and a provided iterator is iterable, the returned iterator is iterable.
Examples
var uniform = require( '@stdlib/random/iter/uniform' );
var iterAtan2 = require( '@stdlib/math/iter/special/atan2' );
// Create seeded iterators for generating pseudorandom numbers:
var x = uniform( -2.0, 2.0, {
'seed': 1234,
'iter': 10
});
var y = uniform( -2.0, 2.0, {
'seed': 4567,
'iter': 10
});
// Create an iterator which consumes the pseudorandom number iterators:
var it = iterAtan2( y, x );
// Perform manual iteration...
var r;
while ( true ) {
r = it.next();
if ( r.done ) {
break;
}
console.log( r.value );
}
