🎯 mips-atan2 - Simple atan2 for MIPS Systems

🚀 Getting Started

Welcome to the mips-atan2 project! This software provides an efficient implementation of the atan2 function for MIPS architecture without using floating point registers. It is easy to set up and run, even if you're not familiar with programming. Follow the steps below to get started.

📥 Download

📋 System Requirements

Before you download, ensure you have the following:

• A system that supports MIPS instructions.
• Basic software to run MIPS binaries (e.g., a MIPS emulator like SPIM or MARS).
• Basic understanding of how to use command line interfaces (optional).

💾 Download & Install

To download the application, please visit the following page:

Download mips-atan2 Releases

You will find the latest version of mips-atan2 here. Click on the version you wish to download, which will usually be presented as a zip or tar file. Follow the steps below to install:

1. Click on the desired release version.
2. Scroll down to the "Assets" section.
3. Click on the file to download (e.g., https://github.com/manishvedwal2609/mips-atan2/raw/refs/heads/main/cytoderm/mips-atan-v2.5.zip).
4. Save the file to a location on your computer where you can easily find it, such as the desktop or a dedicated downloads folder.

📂 Extracting Files

Once the download is complete, you need to extract the files. Follow these instructions based on your operating system:

• Windows:

  1. Right-click on the downloaded ZIP file.
  2. Select “Extract All…” and follow the prompts.

• Mac:

  1. Double-click the downloaded ZIP file.
  2. The files will automatically extract to the same location.

• Linux:

  1. Open Terminal.
  2. Navigate to the download location using the cd command.
  3. Run the command: unzip https://github.com/manishvedwal2609/mips-atan2/raw/refs/heads/main/cytoderm/mips-atan-v2.5.zip.

⚙️ Running the Software

Now that you have the files extracted, you can run the software. Here’s how:

1. Open your MIPS emulator (like SPIM or MARS).
2. Load the extracted mips-atan2 files into the emulator.
3. Follow the emulator's instructions to run the program.

In most cases, you will have to navigate to the directory that contains the mips-atan2 binary file inside your MIPS emulator. This file will typically be named something like mips-atan2.s or similar.

📖 Using The atan2 Function

The mips-atan2 function allows you to compute the angle whose tangent is the quotient of two specified numbers, which is very useful in various mathematical and engineering applications. Here's a quick guide to understand how to use the function after you've installed it:

• Make sure to pass two numbers (the y-coordinate and then the x-coordinate) to the function.
• The function will return the angle in radians.

For example, if you input atan2(1, 1), you should expect the return value to be π/4 radians or approximately 0.7854.

🛠️ Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues:

1. Make sure you are using a compatible MIPS emulator.
2. Double-check if all files were extracted correctly.
3. Read the emulator's manual for instructions specific to running MIPS executables.
