	x can be a scalar number, array or cluster of numbers, array of clusters of numbers, and so on.
	arctan(x) is of the same numeric representation as x. When x is of the form x = a + bi, that is, when x is complex, the following equation defines arctan(x): arctan(x) ranges from -pi/2 to pi/2.

Example
