sinCos()

Purpose

Returns the sine and cosine of the supplied angle.

Description

This is the sine (SIN) and cosine (COS) functions combined. If you require both values it is more convenient than calling the two separately.

Syntax

result = sinCos( angle )

Arguments

angle An acute angle in a right-angled triangle.

result A vector containing the sine (result.x) and cosine (result.y) values for the specified angle.

Example

clear()
centre = { gWidth() / 2, gHeight() / 2 }
for angle = 0 to 360 loop
    col = { random( 101 ) / 100, random( 101 ) / 100, random( 101 ) / 100, 1.0 }
    result = sinCos( angle )
    point = { 600 * result.y + centre.x, 300 * result.x + centre.y }
    line( centre, point, col )
repeat

for i = 1 to 100 loop
    update()
repeat
