Math::Trig

Provides subroutines for coverting between degrees, radians, and gradians; converting between different coordinate systems (cartesian, spherical, cylindrical); and great circle formulas.

Also provides versions of the common trigonemetric functions that take or return their arguments in degrees:

sind
cosd
tand
asind
acosd
atand
atan2d

There are also some useful constants defined:

pi2 = pi/2;
pi4 = pi/4;
_2pi = pi*2;
_4pi = pi*4;

SYNOPSIS

use Math::Trig;      # no trigonometric functions exported
use Math::Trig :ALL; # includes the trig functions

INSTALLATION

zef install Math::Trig
