Syntax:
asin [float]
or
dasin [float]
Returns the arcsine of a number (i.e. the angle whose sine this is)
Example[edit | edit source]
set sine to ( r / y ) set theta to asin sine
Notes[edit | edit source]
- From v0005, all OBSE trigonometric functions take and return degrees. Versions of the functions which accept radians are still available by prefixing the function name with an r. (i.e. rasin)
- This function can be used in a mathematical formula (a + sin b), but a mathematical formula will not compile as the arguement for this function (sin (a + b) doesn't work).
- sin a + b = ( sin a ) + b
