ACOSR()
To return the ARCCOSINE in radians of a cosine value.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
ACOSR( <nCos> ) -> nRadian
Arguments
<nCos> is a numeric value representing a cosine value.
NOTE: Since a parameter of greater than 1 result in a math overflow,
this function returns 0 as a result instead of a math overflow.
Returns
ACOSR() returns the arccosine value (reverse cosign) in radians of
<nCos>.
Description
ACOSR() is a trigonometrical function that returns the arccosine value
in radians of a cosine value.
For degrees, see ACOS().
Accuracy is to the twelfth decimal (i.e. .00000000001)
Examples
? Str( ACOSR(.707106781), 8, 6) // returns 0.785398
? Str( ACOSR(.866025403), 8, 6) // returns 0.523599
