Python Number degrees() Method
Description
Python number method degrees() converts angle x from radians to degrees.
Syntax
Following is the syntax for degrees() method −
degrees(x)
Note − This function is not accessible directly, so we need to import math module and then we need to call this function using math static object.
Parameters
x − This must be a numeric value.
Return Value
This method returns degree value of an angle.
Example
The following example shows the usage of degrees() method.
#!/usr/bin/python import math print "degrees(3) : ", math.degrees(3) print "degrees(-3) : ", math.degrees(-3) print "degrees(0) : ", math.degrees(0) print "degrees(math.pi) : ", math.degrees(math.pi) print "degrees(math.pi/2) : ", math.degrees(math.pi/2) print "degrees(math.pi/4) : ", math.degrees(math.pi/4)
When we run above program, it produces following result −
degrees(3) : 171.887338539 degrees(-3) : -171.887338539 degrees(0) : 0.0 degrees(math.pi) : 180.0 degrees(math.pi/2) : 90.0 degrees(math.pi/4) : 45.0
