Public bug reported: When using radians as unit of angles, gcalctool returns incorrect answers.
For example, acos(-1) -> 180 radians = 10313.24 degrees cos(3.141592) -> 0.99849715 The correct answers are 3.14159265358979... and -0.99849715, respectively. gcalctool 6.6.0-0ubuntu1 Ubuntu 12.10 amd64 ** Affects: gcalctool (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gcalctool in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1105078 Title: Calculations messed up when using radians Status in “gcalctool” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When using radians as unit of angles, gcalctool returns incorrect answers.
