RE: [PHP-WIN] cosine and sin in PHP on Win2K & IIS 5

Hi, your problem is probably because php expects your angle to be expressed in radians and you are expressing it in degrees... To covert you can use these equations: degrees=radians*(180/PI) radians=degrees*(PI/180) hth, Kelvin. -Original Message- From: Bradley J Bristow-Stagg [mailto:[

PHP, like every other programming language I have ever come across, uses radians for its trig functions. you need 3*pi/2 for 270 degrees see deg2rad and rad2deg in the manual. Cheers -- Phil Driscoll -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi, use arguments of trigonometric functions in radians, not degrees. Everything is ok in your example. Put as an argument for example pi/2... it will work. Greetings Piotr --- Bradley J Bristow-Stagg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hey guys, > I am currently dabbling in a little graphics > ge

Hi, That's correct, since PHP cos() and sin() uses radians and not degrees. This can be solved by first using deg2rad(). This would make your code look like this: $i = deg2rad(270); print "cos:".cos($i); print "sine:".sin($i); cos:0 sin:-1 /Johan Bradley J Bristow-Stagg wrote: >
