Does mc-Studio support trig functions such as sine (sin), cosine (cos), tangent (tan)...etc? If so, are there any sample code showing how to use them?

All trig functions are defined as function on the float datatype. So if you have a value in variable calc you can get the Sin by the following statement:
dim mySin as float = calc.Sin()
When you type calc. followed by keys <ctrl><space> you get all functions that you can use on a float including the trig functions

So either I'm doing something wrong or there is a problem with the math functions. For instance in the below code snippet...
Dim Deg2Rad as float
Dim sinlat1 as float
.
.
.
Deg2Rad = .5863985
sinlat1 = Deg2Rad.Sin()
When I execute this in the debugger, sinlat1 is equal to 0.5533648. However, when I use the calculator to find the Sine of .5863985, I get 0.010234

Uh... Never mind. I see it is in radians. ::)
