sinl) is called. Otherwise, if the argument has integer type or the type double, (2) (sin) is called. Otherwise, (1) (sinf) is called. If the argument is complex, then the macro invokes the corresponding complex function (csinl, csin, csinf).|
The functions (4-6) are declared if and only if the implementation predefines |

Parameters
| arg | - | floating-point value representing an angle in radians |
Return value
If no errors occur, the sine of arg (sin(arg)) in the range [-1 ; +1], is returned.
|
The result may have little or no significance if the magnitude of arg is large. |
(until 哋它亢99) |
If a domain error occurs, an implementation-defined value is returned (NaN where supported).
If a range error occurs due to underflow, the correct result (after rounding) is returned.
Error handling
Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling.
If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559):
- if the argument is ±0, it is returned unmodified;
- if the argument is ±∞, NaN is returned and FE_INVALID is raised;
- if the argument is NaN, NaN is returned.
Notes
The case where the argument is infinite is not specified to be a domain error in C, but it is defined as a domain error in POSIX.
POSIX also specifies that in case of underflow, arg is returned unmodified, and if that is not supported, an implementation-defined value no greater than DBL_MIN, FLT_MIN, and LDBL_MIN is returned.
Example
#include <errno.h> #include <fenv.h> #include <math.h> #include <stdio.h> #ifndef __GNUC__ #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON #endif int main(void) { const double pi = acos(-1); // typical usage printf("sin(pi/6) = %f\n", sin(pi / 6)); printf("sin(pi/2) = %f\n", sin(pi / 2)); printf("sin(-3*pi/4) = %f\n", sin(-3 * pi / 4)); // special values printf("sin(+0) = %f\n", sin(0.0)); printf("sin(-0) = %f\n", sin(-0.0)); // error handling feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT); printf("sin(INFINITY) = %f\n", sin(INFINITY)); if (fetestexcept(FE_INVALID)) puts(" FE_INVALID raised"); }
Possible output:
sin(pi/6) = 0.500000
sin(pi/2) = 1.000000
sin(-3*pi/4) = -0.707107
sin(+0) = 0.000000
sin(-0) = -0.000000
sin(INFINITY) = -nan
