Original bug ID: 5202
Reporter: william
Status: closed (set by @damiendoligez on 2011-01-12T17:49:54Z)
Resolution: fixed
Priority: normal
Severity: minor
Version: 3.12.0
Fixed in version: 3.12.1+dev
Category: documentation
Monitored by: @Chris00

Bug description

the documentation associated to atan2 is :
"atan x y returns the arc tangent of y /. x. The signs of x and y are used to determine the quadrant of the result. Result is in radians and is between -pi and pi."

But it should be
"atan y x returns the arc tangent of y /. x. The signs of x and y are used to determine the quadrant of the result. Result is in radians and is between -pi and pi."

x and y are swapped !!!!!

also note that "atan2" should be in place of "atan" in the documentation

FWIW, the documentation is fine in 3.11.2.
