DegToRad

Converts an angle from degrees to radians.

Module: Math

Signature

func DegToRad(x: float64) -> float64;
func DegToRad(x: float32) -> float32;

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
x	float64 / float32	An angle, in degrees.

Returns

x scaled by Pi/180. The conversion is faithful enough that round numbers come out exact: DegToRad(180.0) is Pi. Infinities, NaN, and the sign of a zero all fall out of the multiplication unchanged.

Example

import Math::DegToRad;

let radians = DegToRad(180.0); // 3.141592653589793 (Pi)
let quarter = DegToRad(90.0);  // 1.5707963267948966 (HalfPi)
