Summary

Function: float llAcos( float val );

Returns a float that is the arccosine in radians of val

• float val must fall in the range [-1.0, 1.0]

The returned value is in the range [0.0, PI][1]

Examples

<lsl> // This example exercises the full valid range of argument from -1.0 to +1.0

default {

   touch_start(integer num_detected)
   {
       float random = llFrand(2.0) - 1.0;
       llOwnerSay("The arccosine of " + (string)random + " is " + (string)llAcos(random));
   }

}

</lsl>
