easier arc

-----------------------------------

earlier, i made a program that makes arcs, i was fiddling around when i found a better subroutine:

sind instead of sin


setscreen ("nocursor,noecho,graphics:300;200")
for i : 1 .. 300
        Draw.Dot (i, round (199* sind (i/2)), black)
        delay (10)
        c+=1
end for


Draw.Dot(i:int,round(maxx-1:int * sind (i/2)),colour)

kinda understand?
know you don't need to fiddle around with decimals

sind uses degrees
sin uses real values, namely radian measurements. Those are the only difference.

When you are using sind, it's easier to use, because you are use to the Babylonian measurements of 360 degrees. sin uses radian measure such as pi/2, pi/4 and etc, etc.
