+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These functions calculate the principal value of the arc tangent of
+.IR x ;
+that is the value whose tangent is
+.IR x .
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On success, these functions return the principal value of the arc tangent of
+.I x
+in radians; the return value is in the range [\-pi/2,\ pi/2].
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is +0 (\-0),
++0 (\-0) is returned.
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is positive infinity (negative infinity), +pi/2 (\-pi/2) is returned.
