AD Two Argument Inverse Tangent Function

Syntax
theta = atan2(yx)

Purpose
Determines an angle @(@ \theta \in [ - \pi , + \pi ] @)@ such that @[@ \begin{array}{rcl} \sin ( \theta ) & = & y / \sqrt{ x^2 + y^2 } \\ \cos ( \theta ) & = & x / \sqrt{ x^2 + y^2 } \end{array} @]@

y
The argument y has one of the following prototypes
    const AD<
Base>               &y
    const VecAD<
Base>::reference &y

x
The argument x has one of the following prototypes
    const AD<
Base>               &x
    const VecAD<
Base>::reference &x

theta
The result theta has prototype
    AD<
Basetheta

Operation Sequence
The AD of Base operation sequence used to calculate theta is independent of x and y .

Example
The file atan2.cpp contains an example and test of this function.
