Map and Table Calculation

SIN( ) function

Returns the sine of an angle.

Syntax

SIN(Value)

Input

Value is the angle specified in radians
Domain type: any Value domain

Output

SIN returns: a real value
Domain: system domain Min1to1
Value range: [-1,1]

Notes:

Tip:

When the definition symbol = is used, a dependent output map or dependent output column is created; when the assignment symbol := is used, the dependency link is immediately broken after the output map/column has been calculated.

Usable in

MapCalc, TabCalc, Simple calculators

Examples

Pocket line calculator examples:

? SIN(0.79)

returns 0.710

? SIN(DEGRAD(30))

returns 0.500

MapCalc example:

OutMap1 = SIN(InMap1)
