NAME
sincos, sincosf, sincosl - calculate sin and cos simultaneously
 
SYNOPSIS
#define _GNU_SOURCE         /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <math.h>
void sincos(double x, double *sin, double *cos);
void sincosf(float x, float *sin, float *cos);
void sincosl(long double x, long double *sin, long double *cos);
Link with -lm.
 
DESCRIPTION
Several applications need sine and cosine of the same angle
x.
These functions compute both at the same time, and store the results in
*sin
and
*cos.
If
x
is a NaN,
a NaN is returned in
*sin
and
*cos.
If
x
is positive infinity or negative infinity,
a domain error occurs, and
a NaN is returned in
*sin
and
*cos.
 
RETURN VALUE
These functions return
void.
 
ERRORS
See
math_error(7)
for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred
when calling these functions.
The following errors can occur:
- Domain error: x is an infinity
- 
An invalid floating-point exception
(FE_INVALID)
is raised.
These functions do not set
errno.
 
VERSIONS
These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
