asin

asin

Inverse sine

Result = asin(expression)

expression

spatial, non spatial scalar

Result

dimension of expression directional

Options

if expression is a number: --degrees or --radians

--degrees

direction is given in degrees (default)

--radians

direction is given in radians

Operation

For each cell, calculates the inverse cosine of the cell value on expression and assigns it to Result.

Notes

The values on expression must be equal to or between -1 and 1. Cells with a value outside this range will be assigned a missing value on Result. A cell with missing value on expression is assigned a missing value on Result.

Group

This operation belongs to the group of Arithmetic operators

Examples

1. • pcrcalc

   binding

   Result = Result.map;

   Expr = Expr.map;

   initial

   report Result = asin(Expr);

   
   

   • python

   Expr = readmap(“Expr.map”)

   Result = asin(Expr)

   Result.map	Expr.map
