ASIN()
Computes the sine arc
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
ASIN(<nSine>) --> nSineArc
Argument
<nSine> Designates the angle sine value for which you want the
response determined in radians. The value can be in the range of -1 to
+1 (inclusive).
Returns
ASIN() returns the arc sine for <nSine>.
Description
ASIN() determines an angle size in radians for a sine value. The return
value is in the range of -pi/2 to +pi/2.
Note
. The SETPREC() function can influence the result.
Example
Compute the sine arc:
? STR(ASIN(0.5), 18, 15) // 0.523598775598299
