numpy.rad2deg

numpy.rad2deg(x, /, out=None, *, where=True, casting='same_kind', order='K', dtype=None, subok=True[, signature, extobj]) = <ufunc 'rad2deg'>

Convert angles from radians to degrees.

Parameters:
x : array_like

Angle in radians.

out : ndarray, None, or tuple of ndarray and None, optional

A location into which the result is stored. If provided, it must have a shape that the inputs broadcast to. If not provided or None, a freshly-allocated array is returned. A tuple (possible only as a keyword argument) must have length equal to the number of outputs.

where : array_like, optional

Values of True indicate to calculate the ufunc at that position, values of False indicate to leave the value in the output alone.

**kwargs

For other keyword-only arguments, see the ufunc docs.

Returns:
y : ndarray

The corresponding angle in degrees. This is a scalar if x is a scalar.

Notes

New in version 1.3.0.

rad2deg(x) is 180 * x / pi.

Examples

>>> np.rad2deg(np.pi/2)
