TAN(3G)

💖 TAN(3G) 💖

okay bestie, pull up a chair, we're doing trigonometry in GLSL today and honestly? it's giving iconic. this is the manual page for tan, living in the 3G section of the manual (yes that's the OpenGL shading one, iykyk 🧚).

---

✨ NAME ✨

tan — return the tangent of the parameter 🎀

---

🌸 DECLARATION 🌸

genType tan(genType angle);

no cap, that's the whole signature. genType means it'll flex to whatever float-ish type you throw at it 💅

---

🦋 PARAMETERS 🦋

• angle — specify the quantity, in radians, of which to return the tangent. radians!! not degrees!! don't do degrees bestie, i'm begging 🙈

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

tan returns the trigonometric tangent of angle. that's it. that's the whole vibe. you hand it an angle in radians, it hands you back the tangent, and the two of you go about your day ✨
