FPTAN             Partial Tangent             Exception Flags: I P

FPTAN

       Logic:      Y/X . TAN(ST)
                   ST(1) . Y
                   push stack
                   ST . X

     FPTAN calculates a partial tangent, Y/X = TAN(.). The value . comes from
     ST. The result of the calculation is the ratio Y/X; Y is left in ST(1)
     and X in ST.
                                                               63
