Cot / Computation Layer

Calculate the cotangent of angle values (in radians) in a column. Similar to numpy.cot() or 1/tan() in mathematics.

Mathematical form: where:

  • Input domain: all real numbers except (where n is integer)
  • Output range: all real numbers
  • Period: radians
  • Key points: undefined at

Applications:

  • Wave phase analysis
  • Periodic motion studies
  • Angular measurements

Note: Returns null for undefined points (at multiples of π). Input angles must be in radians.

column

The numeric column containing angles in radians. Examples:

  • π/4 (0.785...) → 1.0
  • π/2 (1.571...) → 0.0
  • π/6 (0.524...) → 1.732...

Values at multiples of π return null

Name for the new column. If not provided, the system generates a unique name. If AsColumn matches an existing column, the exists column is replaced. The name should follow valid column naming conventions.
