COS(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual COS(3)
NAME
cos, cosf, cosl - cosine functions
LIBRARY
Math Library (libm, -lm)
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double
cos(double x);
float
cosf(float x);
long double
cosl(long double x);
DESCRIPTION
The cos(), cosf(), and cosl() functions compute the cosine of x (measured
in radians). A large magnitude argument may yield a result with little
or no significance. For a discussion of error due to roundoff, see
math(3).
RETURN VALUES
The cos(), cosf(), and cosl() functions return the cosine value.
SEE ALSO

sinh(3), tan(3), tanh(3)
STANDARDS
These functions conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1999 ("ISO C99").
HISTORY
The cos() function first appeared in Version 1 AT&T UNIX.
