radians

radians(x, out=None, **kwargs)

Convert angles from degrees to radians.

Parameters:

x : ndarray or scalar

Input array in degrees.

out : ndarray or None

A location into which the result is stored. If provided, it must have the same shape and type as the input. If not provided or None, a freshly-allocated array is returned.

Returns:

y : ndarray

The corresponding radian values. This is a scalar if x is a scalar.

Notes

This function differs from the original numpy.radians in the following way(s): - only ndarray or scalar is accpted as valid input, tuple of ndarray is not supported - broadcasting to out of different shape is currently not supported - when input is plain python numerics, the result will not be stored in the out param

Examples

>>> deg = np.arange(12.) * 30.
>>> np.radians(deg)
