NAME

cos, cosf, cosl -- cosine functions

SYNOPSIS

#include <math.h> double cos(double x); float cosf(float x); long double cosl(long double x);

DESCRIPTION

The cos() function computes the cosine of x (measured in radians). The cosf() function is a single precision version of cos(). The cosl() function is an extended precision version of cos(). A large magnitude argument may yield a result with little or no significance.

RETURN VALUES

The cos(), cosf() and cosl() functions return the cosine value.
