If you have a vector of numbers angle = [dd, mm, ss], it is rather easy to convert it into a decimal number, e.g. angle(1) + (angle(2) + angle(3)/60)/60 If you have a character string, this means parsing. Have a look at tokens() https://help.scilab.org/docs/6.1.0/en_US/tokens.html e.g. --> tokens("44d32m11s", ["d", "m", "s"]) ans = "44" "32" "11" > Does cosd() accept some notation that is similar to one above? No, https://help.scilab.org/docs/6.1.0/en_US/cosd.html HTH, Regards -- Christophe Dang Ngoc Chan Mechanical calculation engineer General This e-mail may contain confidential and/or privileged information.
