Description |
The ArcCos function is a mathematical function giving the value in radians of the Arc Cosine of Number.
|
|
Notes |
The System unit supports only the following angular functions:
ArcTan
Sin
Cos
Special floating point values INF, -INF yield +PI/2 and -PI/2 respectively.

WriteLn('ArcCos of 0.5 = '+FloatToStr(float)+' degrees');
end;
