tf.compat.v1.atan2, tf.compat.v1.math.atan2

This is the angle θ[π,π] such that x=rcos(θ) and y=rsin(θ) where r=x2+y2.

For example:

x = [1., 1.]
y = [1., -1.]
print((tf.math.atan2(y,x) * (180 / np.pi)).numpy())
[ 45. -45.]

y A Tensor. Must be one of the following types: bfloat16, half, float32, float64.
x A Tensor. Must have the same type as y.
name A name for the operation (optional).

A Tensor. Has the same type as y.
