This is part of the C standard. Because the compiler can unambiguously determine that f in is a function pointer, it knows that "f()" can't mean anything else other than "a call to a function pointed to by f". It's a bit like being able to use p[0] whether p is an array or a pointer.

DESCRIPTION
These functions are available only for Integrity servers. stores the sine of x (x specified in degrees) in the object pointed to by sptr and stores the cosine of x in the object pointed to by cptr. is a version of it takes and arguments. is a version of it takes and arguments. is an version of it takes and arguments. is equivalent to on HP-UX systems. USAGE
