I still can't see how to get from one to the other. Where is dwright3's 272 ? Where do the other data come from? Are they constants?

constants
math::constants(n) Tcl Math Library math::constants(n)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
math::constants - Mathematical and numerical constants
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl ?8.3?
package require math::constants ?1.0.1?
::math::constants::constants args
::math::constants::print-constants args
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
This package defines some common mathematical and numerical constants. By using the package you get consistent values for numbers like pi
and ln(10).
It defines two commands:
o One for importing the constants
o One for reporting which constants are defined and what values they actually have.
The motivation for this package is that quite often, with (mathematical) computations, you need a good approximation to, say, the ratio of
degrees to radians. You can, of course, define this like:
variable radtodeg [expr {180.0/(4.0*atan(1.0))}]
and use the variable radtodeg whenever you need the conversion.
This has two drawbacks:
o You need to remember the proper formula or value and that is error-prone.
o Especially with the use of mathematical functions like atan you assume that they have been accurately implemented. This is seldom or
never the case and for each platform you can get subtle differences.
Here is the way you can do it with the math::constants package:
package require math::constants
::math::constants::constants radtodeg degtorad
which creates two variables, radtodeg and (its reciprocal) degtorad in the calling namespace.
Constants that have been defined (their values are mostly taken from mathematical tables with more precision than usually can be handled)
include:
o basic constants like pi, e, gamma (Euler's constant)
o derived values like ln(10) and sqrt(2)
o purely numerical values such as 1/3 that are included for convenience and for the fact that certain seemingly trivial computations
like:
set value [expr {3.0*$onethird}]
give exactly the value you expect (if IEEE arithmetic is available).
PROCEDURES
The package defines the following public procedures:
::math::constants::constants args
Import the constants whose names are given as arguments
::math::constants::print-constants args
Print the constants whose names are given as arguments on the screen (name, value and description) or, if no arguments are given,
print all defined constants. This is mainly a convenience procedure.

This document, and the package it describes, will undoubtedly contain bugs and other problems. Please report such in the category math ::
constants of the Tcllib SF Trackers [http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=12883]. Please also report any ideas for enhancements you
may have for either package and/or documentation.
