COT

COT is a built-in mathematical function in SQL. It returns the cotangent of a specified number.

COT(X)

  • x: The numeric value for which the cotangent will be calculated. One must ensure that the value of X is not 0 as the cotangent of 0 is undefined.

Example

SELECT COT(45);

Output

0.5253219888177297

Explanation

The COT() function in MySQL returns the cotangent of a number. In the example, the input number is 45. The cotangent of 45 is approximately 0.5253219888177297.

COT( float_expression )

  • float_expression: The angle, in radians, for which the cotangent is to be calculated. This parameter is an expression of type float or of a type that can be implicitly converted to float.

Example

SELECT COT(45) as CotangentValue;

Output

CotangentValue
1.61977519

Explanation

The COT function in SQL Server is used to compute the cotangent of a number. Above code calculates the cotangent of 45, and the result is 1.61977519.

COT(n NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER;

  • n: This is the numerical input value for which the cotangent will be calculated. It allows floating point values and is expressed in degrees.
  • number: This signifies the data type of the argument which must be a number. It’s also the returned data type, indicating that the function will return the cotangent of n as a numerical value.

Example

SELECT COT(1) FROM dual;

Output

0.6420926159343306

Explanation

In this example, the COT function computes the cotangent of 1. The return value is approximately 0.6420926159343306.
