    Dumb math question related to Navigation and encoders
   How do you compute, using Handyboard Interactive C, the Sin, Cos, Tan, Arctan, etc. ? Is there some sort of built in math library file that I can use or is it some sort of formula? I want to implement some rough dead reckoning ability and this stuff (...) (25 years ago, 5-May-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
   
        Re: Dumb math question related to Navigation and encoders —Will Bain
     (...) This is actually a very good question. Generally, math function libraries use what is called a Taylor series expansion of a trigonometric function to return an approximation to the function with arbitrary precision. The more terms from the (...) (25 years ago, 5-May-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

   Dear Bob, Trigonometric library functions are available in interactive C. (...) The following functions are available(Refer to IC manual available at the MIT site) float sin(float angle) returns sine of an angle given in radians. float cos(float (...)
