.. _auto_trig_tan:

*COMPUTE THE TAN OF A NUMBER*
=============================

Computes the trigonometric tangent of a scalar input value (angle in radians). Use this worker whenever a tan(x) transformation is needed within a workflow expression or data pipeline.

     - The input angle in radians for which the tangent is computed; accepts any real scalar value (leave default/null if the value will be wired dynamically from an upstream worker).
