I dont understand what do you whant, i dont know if there is coz i'm drunk 
, but i like single race games like Atari. Thats "Enduro" was great (thats climate changes) , also "grandprix" was a great game (the cars were from left to right and the user only use the keypad for move it).

i need to get the angle between two points , like (0,0) and (1,1) = 45 degrees or (0,0) and (0,98364)=0 degrees. understand?
this will be used to make a stearing wheel for the car.

angle = atan ( (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) )

No, it's called arctan and abbereiviated for atan.atan = (tan)^-1 ???
when y = tan x
then x = atan y
------------EDIT------------
It's diplayed on our calculator buttons as tan^-1, and it's also written mathematically like that, but never confuse it with:
1
-------
tan x

I dont think the direct way I was planning will work, but i can still pull off the basic idea. if this works out I expect it to be very cool
