41  * RETURNS ARC TANGENT OF X
42  * DOUBLE PRECISION (IEEE DOUBLE 53 bits, VAX D FORMAT 56 bits)
43  * CODED IN C BY K.C. NG, 4/16/85, REVISED ON 6/10/85.
44  *
45  * Required kernel function:
46  *	atan2(y,x)
47  *
48  * Method:
49  *	atan(x) = atan2(x,1.0).
50  *
51  * Special case:
52  *	if x is NaN, return x itself.
53  *
54  * Accuracy:
55  * 1)  If atan2() uses machine PI, then
56  *
57  *	atan(x) returns (PI/pi) * (the exact arc tangent of x) nearly rounded;
58  *	and PI is the exact pi rounded to machine precision (see atan2 for
59  *      details):
60  *
61  *	in decimal:
62  *		pi = 3.141592653589793 23846264338327 .....
63  *    53 bits   PI = 3.141592653589793 115997963 ..... ,
64  *    56 bits   PI = 3.141592653589793 227020265 ..... ,
65  *
66  *	in hexadecimal:
67  *		pi = 3.243F6A8885A308D313198A2E....
68  *    53 bits   PI = 3.243F6A8885A30  =  2 * 1.921FB54442D18	error=.276ulps
69  *    56 bits   PI = 3.243F6A8885A308 =  4 * .C90FDAA22168C2    error=.206ulps
70  *
71  *	In a test run with more than 200,000 random arguments on a VAX, the
72  *	maximum observed error in ulps (units in the last place) was
73  *	0.86 ulps.      (comparing against (PI/pi)*(exact atan(x))).
74  *
75  * 2)  If atan2() uses true pi, then
76  *
77  *	atan(x) returns the exact atan(x) with error below about 2 ulps.
78  *
79  *	In a test run with more than 1,024,000 random arguments on a VAX, the
80  *	maximum observed error in ulps (units in the last place) was
81  *	0.85 ulps.
