    The Tangent of Angle Expressed in Radians (H-Floating Value)
    routine returns the tangent of a given angle (in radians) as an
    H-floating value.

    Format

      MTH$HTAN  h-tan ,angle-in-radians

1 - Corresponding JSB Entry Point

      MTH$HTAN_R5

2 - Returns

    None.

3 - Arguments

 h-tan

    OpenVMS usage:floating_point
    type:         H_floating
    access:       write only
    mechanism:    by reference

    Tangent of the angle specified by angle-in-radians. The h-tan
    argument is the address of an H-floating number that is this
    tangent. MTH$HTAN writes the address of the tangent into h-tan.

 angle-in-radians

    OpenVMS usage:floating_point
    type:         H_floating
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by reference

    The input angle (in radians). The angle-in-radians argument is
    the address of a floating-point number that is this angle. For
    MTH$HTAN, angle-in-radians specifies an H-floating number.
