Cos

A command for Oblivion Script Extender

More widely known as the "COSINE" law.

Syntax:

cos [float]

Returns the cosine of the angle.

Example

set x to r * ( cos theta )

Notes

• At present, all OBSE trigonometric functions take radians, not degrees. To convert an angle in degrees to radians, use this:

  set radians to ( 3.14 * ( degrees / 180 ) )

• This function can be used in a mathematical formula (a + cos b), but a mathematical formula will not compile as the arguement for this function (cos (a + b) doesn't work).
• cos a + b = ( cos a ) + b
