Yes that is what my code does. It reduces degrees to [0,90].
Only for the special angles, though. Richard's point is that you need to do tha for *all* angles to avoid discontinuities with large angles.
This is not how sine functions are calculated. They are calculated by reducing angle to some interval, then evaluating a polynomial which

That's what he suggested, with the interval being -7.5 to 7.5 degrees. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
