OK. The name might be a bit misleading :)
Added that to the example!

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)
-> 15707
Hi Alex,
agreed.
It was a bit of a hassle to find a nice example, but I came up with this:
# The following example calls the native Linux function 'getenv'
# in order to fetch the hostname from it (env variable = NAME).
# Then it reads user input (a guess for the hostname).
# Then it
