NAME coversin - coversed trigonometric sine SYNOPSIS coversin(x [,eps]) TYPES x number (real or complex) eps 0 < real < 1, defaults to epsilon() return number DESCRIPTION Calculate the coversed trigonometric sine of x to a multiple of eps with error less in absolute value than .75 * eps. This function is sometimes called covers, or cvs, is equivalent to: coversin(x) = 1 - sin(x) EXAMPLE ; print coversin(1/2), coversin(5/7), coversin(42/7) 0.52057446139579699973 0.3449221028214814258 1.27941549819892587281 ; print coversin(1, 1e-5), coversin(1, 1e-10), coversin(1, 1e-15), coversin(1, 1e-20) 0.15853 0.1585290152 0.158529015192104 0.15852901519210349335 ; print coversin(2 + 3i, 1e-5), coversin(2 + 3i, 1e-10) -8.1545+4.16891i -8.1544991469+4.16890696i ; pi = pi(1e-20) ; print coversin(pi/6), coversin(pi/2), coversin(pi) 0.5 0 1 LIMITS 0 < eps < 1 LINK LIBRARY NUMBER *qcoversin(NUMBER *x, NUMBER *eps) COMPLEX *c_coversin(COMPLEX *x, NUMBER *eps) SEE ALSO sin, cos, tan, cot, sec, csc asin, acos, atan, acot, asec, acsc versin, vercos, covercos aversin, acoversin, avercos, acovercos haversin, hacoversin, havercos, hacovercos ahaversin, hacoversin, havercos, ahacovercos exsec, aexsec, excsc, aexcsc crd, acrd cas, cis epsilon EXTERNAL RESOURCES For general information on trigonometric functions, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometric_functions#Unit-circle_definitions https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Versine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exsecant https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_trigonometric_functions https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_(geometry) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secant_line https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hartley_transform#cas https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis_(mathematics) ## Copyright (C) 2023 Landon Curt Noll ## ## Calc is open software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under ## the terms of the version 2.1 of the GNU Lesser General Public License ## as published by the Free Software Foundation. ## ## Calc is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ## ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY ## or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
