SYNOPSIS #include <allegro.h> fixed fixtan(fixed x); DESCRIPTION This function finds the tangent of a value using a lookup table. The input value must be a fixed point binary angle. Example: fixed angle, res_a, res_b; float dif; angle = itofix(37); /* Prove that tan(angle) == sin(angle) / cos(angle). */ res_a = fixdiv(fixsin(angle), fixcos(angle)); res_b = fixtan(angle); dif = fixtof(fixsub(res_a, res_b)); allegro_message("Precision error: %f\n", dif); RETURN VALUE Returns the tangent of a fixed point binary format angle. The return value will be in radians. SEE ALSO Allegro version 4.4.3 fixtan(3)
