.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.BR sin ()
|
|
function returns the sine of
|
|
.IR x ,
|
|
where
|
|
.I x
|
|
is
|
|
given in radians.
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
On success, these functions return the sine of
|
|
.IR x .
|
|
|
|
If
|
|
.I x
|
|
is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
|
|
|
|
If
|
|
.I x
|
|
is positive infinity or negative infinity,
|
|
a domain error occurs,
|
|
and a NaN is returned.
|
|
.\"
|
|
.\" POSIX.1 allows an optional range error for subnormal x
|
|
.\" glibc 2.8 doesn't do this
|
|
.SH ERRORS
|
|
See
|
|
.BR math_error (7)
|
|
for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred
|
|
when calling these functions.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The following errors can occur:
|
|
.TP
|
|
Domain error: \fIx\fP is an infinity
|
|
.I errno
|
|
is set to
|
|
.BR EDOM
|
|
(but see BUGS).
|
|
An invalid floating-point exception
|
|
.RB ( FE_INVALID )
|
|
is raised.
|
|
.SH ATTRIBUTES
|
|
.SS Multithreading (see pthreads(7))
|
|
The
|
|
.BR sin (),
|
|
.BR sinf (),
|
|
and
|
|
.BR sinl ()
|
|
functions are thread-safe.
|
|
.SH CONFORMING TO
|
|
C99, POSIX.1-2001.
|
|
The variant returning
|
|
.I double
|
|
also conforms to
|
|
SVr4, 4.3BSD, C89.
|
|
.SH BUGS
|
|
Before version 2.10, the glibc implementation did not set
|
|
.\" http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6781
|
|
.I errno
|
|
to
|
|
.B EDOM
|
|
when a domain error occurred.
