coscosine function (radians)

Syntax   cos (r : real) : real

Description   The cos function is used to find the cosine of an angle given in radians. For example, cos (0) is 1.

Example   This program prints out the cosine of p/6, 2p/6, 3p/6, up to 12p/6 radians.

        const pi := 3.14159
        for i : 1 .. 12
            const angle := i * pi / 6
            put "Cos of ", angle, " is ", cos (angle)
        end for

the cosd function which finds the cosine of an angle given in degrees. (2p radians are the same as 360 degrees.)
