C-Sharp Tan Example – Code Sample Syntax

C-Sharp Tan Example – Code Sample Syntax

Purpose: – Illustrates using .

Purpose:
converts an angle measured in radians to a tangent. (you can convert
the radians to degrees by multiplying them by Math.PI/180)

Syntax:
Tan(doublenumber)

Parameters Description
doublenumber double percision floating point
number representing an angle measured in radians.

Result Data Type Description
double represents the tangent of the angle specified in
parameter1. If parameter1 is equal to NaN,
NegativeInfinity, or PositiveInfinity,
NaN (Not a Number) is returned.

Quick Example
Tan(radians) // Returns 0.449218546627416

        Console.WriteLine("Example #3: 	Tan(doublenumber)");
 
        radians = 180 * 180 / Math.PI;
 
        Console.WriteLine("Tan(radians) = {0}", Math.Tan(radians)); // Returns -0.696494466235817
 
        //Prevent console from closing before you press enter
        Console.ReadLine();
 
    }

Step 2: Click cs to Cut-n-paste code into Module1.cs

Module Module1
 
    Sub Main()
 
 
        Dim myclsTan As New clsTan
        myclsTan.Main()
 
 
 
    End Sub
 
End Module

Prerequistes:

  1. Install C-Sharp (Express or Standard Edition)
  2. Install SQL Server Express
  3. Download Northwind and pubs Database
  4. Attach Northwind Database to Databases in Sql Express
  5. Attach pubs Database to Databases in Sql Express

Notes:

  • Console Application is used to simplify things, but Windows Forms or Web Forms could also be used
  • You can build a library of syntax examples by using same project over and over and just commenting out what you do not want to execute in Module1.cs

Instructions:
