FQL v4 will be decommissioned on June 30, 2025. Ensure that you complete your migration from FQL v4 to FQL v10 by that date.

Fauna accounts created after August 21, 2024 must use FQL v10. These accounts will not be able to run FQL v4 queries or access the v4 Dashboard.

For more details, see the v4 EOL announcement and migration guide. Contact support@fauna.com with any questions.

Description

The Acos function is a trigonometric function which calculates ratios of the lengths of the sides of right triangles. Acos returns the arc cosine of a number.

Parameters

Parameter Type Definition and Requirements

value

Number

The Number whose arc cosine should be returned.

Returns

A Number which is the arc cosine of value.

Examples

The following query returns the arc cosine of 0.5:

client.query(
  q.Acos(0.5)
)
.then((ret) => console.log(ret))
.catch((err) => console.error(
  'Error: [%s] %s: %s',
  err.name,
  err.message,
  err.errors()[0].description,
))
1.0471975511965979
result = client.query(
  q.acos(0.5)
)
print(result)
1.0471975511965979
result, err := client.Query(
	f.Acos(0.5))

if err != nil {
	fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, err)
} else {
	fmt.Println(result)
}
1.0471975511965979
try
{
    Value result = await client.Query(
        Acos(0.5)
    );

    Console.WriteLine(result);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"ERROR: {e.Message}");
}
