Hi Alex,

I see that this:
   : (format (deg2rad 90.0) *Scl)
   -> "1.570797"
is a way to produce the correct answer with the decimal point displayed.
Is this the best way to do it?

Also I'm not sure what causes the difference between:
   : (deg2rad 90)
   -> 2
and:
   : (deg2rad 90.0)
   -> 1570797
It appears to be related to rounding.
Please explain or point me to the correct docs :)

Also this can be a point of great confusion for newcomers. So, some extra
attention might be needed?

TIA,
   Arie
