Math.js is an extensive math library for JavaScript and Node.js. It features a flexible expression parser with support for symbolic computation, comes with a large set of built-in functions and constants, and offers an integrated solution to work with dif

   * Calculate the inverse cotangent of a value, defined as `acot(x) = atan(1/x)`.
   *
   * For matrices, the function is evaluated element wise.
   *
   * Syntax:
   *
   *    math.acot(x)
   *
   * Examples:
   *
   *    math.acot(0.5);           // returns number 0.4636476090008061
   *    math.acot(math.cot(1.5)); // returns number 1.5
   *
   *    math.acot(2);             // returns Complex 1.5707963267948966 -1.3169578969248166 i
