 DTOR()
 Converts from a degree to radian measure
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Syntax
     DTOR(<nAngle>) --> nArc
 Argument
     <Angle>  Designates a valid angle measurement in degrees.
 Returns
     DTOR() returns the radian of the specified value.
 Description
     In addition to expressing angle measurements in degrees, you may also
     need to express an angle in radians.  With DTOR(), you can convert
     degree measurements into radians.
 Example
     Show some calculations accurate to 15th place:
     ? STR(DTOR(360), 18, 15)     // Result: 6.283185307179588
     ? STR(DTOR(180), 18, 15)     // Result: 3.141592653589794
     ? STR(DTOR(180.5), 18, 15)   // Result: 3.150319299849766
     ? STR(DTOR(720), 18, 15)     // Result: 12.566370614359180
     ? STR(DTOR(-180), 18, 15)    // Result:-3.141592653589794
