Description

Angle is equivalent to Arctan2(X, Y), which is the angle in radians between the positive X-axis of a plane and the point given by the coordinates (X, Y) on the plane. The angle is positive for counter-clockwise angles (upper half-plane, Y > 0), and negative for clockwise angles (lower half-plane, Y < 0).

Arctan2(0, 0) is 0, because normally Arctan2(0, 0) is undefined.
