Howwever, someone came in lectureing us on: Yes, but within the defined mathematical ranges for sine and cosine -- [0, 2 * PI) -- (which let me wonder whese those maths come from). | Some are asking for the freedom to request this or that | kind of sine computation to be generated, because they know | that for *their* range of numbers, this or that kind of sine | computation does what they want. I have no trouble with that. But that is very different from the claim I quoted above. -- Gaby
