Description
All these functions work with double precision floating point
numbers. They convert their argument to an IEEE 64-bit float and
return a result of that type.
: acos arc cosine
: asin arc sine
: atan arc tangent
: cos cosine
: sin sine
: tan tangent
: cot cotangent
: degrees convert an angle in radians to degrees.
: radians convert an angle in radians to degrees.
: atan2 arc tangent with x and y coordinates, can return an angle in any quadrant.
: pi return pi.
