Purpose

Sin returns the sine of a value.

Return Type

Real

Syntax

(Sin( {expression} ))

What It Does

Sin returns the sine of the value of {expression}. The expression is an angle stated in radians.

Real rSine
Move (Sin(.70711)) to rSine

In this example, the sine of .70711 is moved to the real variable rSine.

Notes

• Sin interprets {expression} as a number of radians. To calculate the sine of a number of degrees, divide the degrees by 180 and multiply them by the value of π.

• Sin converts the parameter {expression} to a real value and outputs a real value.
