sindg

Circular sine of an angle in degrees.

SYNOPSIS:

double x, y, sindg();
y = sindg(x);

DESCRIPTION:

Range reduction is into intervals of 45 degrees. Two polynomial approximating functions are employed.
Between 0 and pi/4 the sine is approximated by:
     x + x**3 P(x**2).

Between pi/4 and pi/2 the cosine is represented as:
     1 - x**2 P(x**2).
