f | The input angle, in radians. |
float The return value between -1 and 1.
Returns the cosine of angle f
.
Note: If using very large numbers with this function, there is an acceptable range for input angle values for this method, beyond which the calculation will fail. On windows, the acceptable range is approximately between -9223372036854775295 to 9223372036854775295. This range may differ on other platforms. For values outside of the acceptable range, the Cos method returns the input value, rather than throwing an exception.
