numpy.deg2rad

numpy.deg2rad(x, /, out=None, *, where=True, casting='same_kind', order='K', dtype=None, subok=True[, signature, extobj]) = <ufunc 'deg2rad'>

Convert angles from degrees to radians.

Parameters:
x : array_like

Angles in degrees.

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 radians. This is a scalar if x is a scalar.

Notes

New in version 1.3.0.

deg2rad(x) is x * pi / 180.
