Summary:
Calculates the inverse trigonometric cotangent (arccotangent or arccot) of a real number. The value returned is the principal value and lies in the range (0, &pi;) radians.

Syntax:
ACOT(Number)

Returns:
Returns a real number in the range (0, &pi;) that is the inverse trigonometric cotangent of Number in radians.

Arguments:
Number is a real number, or a reference to a cell containing that number, whose inverse trigonometric cotangent is to be calculated.


 * If Number is non-numeric, then ACOT reports a #VALUE! error.

Additional details:

 * To return the angle in degrees, use the DEGREES function.
 * Alternatively multiply by 180/PI to convert the result from radians to degrees.
