For most brick projects I can think of, it is. If you want to travel
your robot around, you will have to deal with sin, cos, tan and square root.
First thing you can do is working with tables to avoid "on the fly" sin
calculation. Second, you could multiply your table values with a factor
and get int (or long) values instead. For example, a sinus value for 45°
could be stored as 707 when you multiplied it by 1000.
