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)
