Summary

Function: float llAcos( float <span title="val must fall in the range [-1.0, 1.0]. (-1.0 <= val <= 1.0)" style="border-bottom:1px dotted; cursor:help;">val );

Returns a float that is the arccosine in radians of val

• float val val must fall in the range [-1.0, 1.0]. (-1.0 <= val <= 1.0)

Examples

// Touch the object with this script in it to see the arccosine of random numbers!
