xarray.ufuncs.angle = <xarray.ufuncs._UFuncDispatcher object>

xarray specific variant of numpy.angle. Handles xarray.Dataset, xarray.DataArray, xarray.Variable, numpy.ndarray and dask.array.Array objects with automatic dispatching.

Documentation from numpy:

Return the angle of the complex argument.
Parameters:
z : array_like

A complex number or sequence of complex numbers.

deg : bool, optional

Return angle in degrees if True, radians if False (default).

Returns:
angle : ndarray or scalar

The counterclockwise angle from the positive real axis on the complex plane, with dtype as numpy.float64.

..versionchanged:: 1.16.0

This function works on subclasses of ndarray like ma.array.

Examples

>>> np.angle([1.0, 1.0j, 1+1j])               # in radians
array([ 0.        ,  1.57079633,  0.78539816])
>>> np.angle(1+1j, deg=True)                  # in degrees
