atan function

double atan(double xa, [ double xb = 0.0, bool leftPlane = false ])

Internal helper function to compute arctangent.

xa number from which arctangent is requested. xb extra bits for x (may be 0.0). leftPlane if true, result angle must be put in the left half plane. Returns atan(xa + xb) (or angle shifted by PI if leftPlane is true)
