*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. rsin)

*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
*sin a + b = ( sin a ) + b
