10 eps nonzero real, defaults to epsilon()
15 If x and y are not both zero, atan2(y, x, eps) returns, as a multiple of
16 eps with error less than abs(eps), the angle t such that
17 -pi < t <= pi and x = r * cos(t), y = r * sin(t), where
18 r > 0. Usually the error does not exceed abs(eps)/2.
20 Note that by convention, y is the first argument; if x > 0,
21 atan2(y, x) = atan(y/x).
23 To conform to the 4.3BSD ANSI/IEEE 754-1985 math lib, atan2(0,0)
27 ; print atan2(0,0), atan2(1,sqrt(3)), atan2(17,53,1e-100)
