DESCRIPTION

     sincos(x,s,c) allows simultaneous computation of  *s:=sin(x)
     and *c:=cos(x).

     sind(x), cosd(x), and tand(x) return trigonometric functions
     of   degree   arguments.    sind(x):=   sin(x*n/180).    The
     corresponding   inverse   functions    compute    asind(x):=
     asin(x)*180/n.  Similarly atan2d(y,x):= atan2(y,x)*180/n.

     sinpi(x),  cospi(x),  and  tanpi(x)  avoid   range-reduction
     issues  because their definition sinpi(x):= sin(n*x) permits
     range reduction that is  fast  and  exact  for  all  x.  The
     corresponding    inverse   functions   compute   asinpi(x):=
     asin(x)/n.  Similarly atan2pi(y,x):= atan2(y,x)/n.

     sinp(x), cosp(x), and tanp(x) use PI/2, the double precision
     approximation  to  n/2,  in  the  argument reduction step to
     reduce arguments exceeding PI/4 in magnitude  to  the  range
     -PI/4  to PI/4 . The argument reduction step is accomplished
     by the fmod function; thus it is much faster than using  the
     true  value  of  n.   The  relation  between sinp and sin is
     sinp(x):= sin(x*n/PI).  The corresponding inverse  functions
     asinp(x):=  asin(x)*PI/n.  Since PI/n is close to 1, we sim-
     ply return  asin(x).   The  same  applies  to  acosp(x)  and
     atanp(x).
