[Scilab-users] cotg and acot

[Federico Miyara]

Dear all,

Is there any reason why the cotangent function is called cotg in Scilab, 
instead of cot, being cot a Matlab replacement, while the hyerbolic 
cotangent is called coth?

I wonder why this function doesn't follow the tacit rule that 
trigonometric functions are notated with three-letter names and is 
somewhat inconsistent also with the names used for the hypebolic versions.

If there is some difference in the result of Scilab and Matlab 
cotangent, probably the Matlab replacement should be called mtlb_cot, or 
something like that.

Regards,

Federico Miyara
