INQUADRANT (X,Y)

• $X$ and $Y$ are any real values.

Description

• This function shows the value of the quadrant for the given values.
• In $INQUADRANT(X,Y)$,$X$ and $Y$ are any values.
• Generally there are Four quadrants.Quadrants are defined by the axes of a two dimensional Cartesian system divide the plane into four infinite regions and each bounded by two half-axes.
• These are often numbered from 1st to 4th and denoted by Roman numerals: I (where the signs of the (x,y) coordinates are)(+,+), II (−,+), III (−,−), and IV (+,−).
• When the axes are drawn according to the mathematical custom, the numbering goes counter-clockwise starting from the upper right quadrant.
• So here $X$ and $Y$ values are + then that values will lie in first Quadrant.
• When $X$ value is - and $Y$ value is + then that values lie in Second Quadrant.
• When $X$ and $Y$ values are -then that values lie in Third Quadrant.
• When $X$ value is "+" and $Y$ value is - then that value is lie in Fourth Quadrant.

Examples

1. INQUADRANT(19,14) = 1
2. INQUADRANT(19,-14) = 4
3. INQUADRANT(-19,-14) = 3
4. INQUADRANT(-19,14) =2
