-**tan** ( [[numericexpressions|numeric_expression]] ) 
  
-returns [[floatexpressions|float_expression]] 
- 
-==== Description ==== 
-Computes the tangent of angle in radians. 
- 
-==== Note ==== 
-The tan function does not produce an exact result. 
- 
-==== Example ==== 
-<code> 
-clg 
-color black 
-# draw a line across the graphic output 
-line 0,150,300,150 
-# where do we start 
-lastx = 0 
-lasty = tan(0) * 50 + 150 
-# now step across the line and draw 
-for x = 0 to 300 step 5 
-   angle = x / 300 * 2 * pi 
-   y = tan(angle) * 50 + 150 
-   line lastx, lasty, x, y 
-   lastx = x 
-   lasty = y 
-next x 
-</code>
