NAME
    cot - trigonometric cotangent

SYNOPSIS
    cot(x [,eps])

TYPES
    x		number (real or complex)
    eps		0 < real < 1, defaults to epsilon()

    return	real

DESCRIPTION
    Calculate the trigonometric cotangent of x to a multiple of eps, with error less
    in absolute value than .75 * eps.

    This function is equivalent to:

	cot(x) = cos(x) / sin(x)

EXAMPLE
    ; print cot(1/2), cot(5/7), cot(42/7)
    1.83048772171245191927 1.15339160419695060142 -3.43635300418012783207

    ; print cot(1, 1e-5), cot(1, 1e-10), cot(1, 1e-15), cot(1, 1e-20)
    0.64209 0.6420926159 0.642092615934331 0.64209261593433070301

    ; print cot(2 + 3i, 1e-5), cot(2 + 3i, 1e-10)
    ~-0.00373977357605613583-~0.99675796378381737782i ~-0.00373971037383300017-~0.99675779657435500069i

    ; pi = pi(1e-20)
    ; print cot(pi/6), cot(pi/2), cot(pi)
    1.73205080756887729353 0 -378303066284076833726.92240766640467212978

    ; # NOTE: The huge value for cot(pi) is due to the fact that pi is not exact.

LIMITS
