Usage

Syntax

Cos (in_raster_or_constant)
ParameterExplanationData Type
in_raster_or_constant

The input for which to calculate the cosine values.

In order to use a number as an input for this parameter, the cell size and extent must first be set in the environment.

Code Sample

Cos example 1 (Python window)

This example calculates the cosine of the values in the input GRID raster.

import arcpy
from arcpy import env
from arcpy.sa import *
env.workspace = "C:/sapyexamples/data"
outCos = Cos("degs")
outCos.save("C:/sapyexamples/output/outcos")
Cos example 2 (stand-alone script)

This example calculates the cosine of the values in the input GRID raster and outputs a TIFF raster.

# Name: Cos_Ex_02.py
# Description: Calculates the cosine of cells in a raster
# Requirements: Spatial Analyst Extension

# Import system modules
import arcpy
from arcpy import env
from arcpy.sa import *

# Set environment settings
env.workspace = "C:/sapyexamples/data"

# Set local variables
inRaster = "degs"

# Check out the ArcGIS Spatial Analyst extension license
arcpy.CheckOutExtension("Spatial")

# Execute Cos
outCos = Cos(inRaster)

# Save the output 
outCos.save("C:/sapyexamples/output/outcos.tif")
