sincos(3M)						  Mathematical Library Functions						sincos(3M)

NAME

       sincos, sincosf, sincosl - combined sine and cosine function

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
       #include <math.h>

       void sincos(double x, double *s, double *c);

       void sincosf(float x, float *s, float *c);

       void sincosl(long double x, long double *s, long double *c);

DESCRIPTION

       These functions compute the sine and cosine of the first argument x, measured in radians.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, these functions return the sine of x in *s and cosine of x in *c.

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.  Using this function can be more efficient than two separate calls to sin(3) and cos(3).

       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.

CONFORMING TO

       These functions are GNU extensions.

NOTES

       To see the performance advantage of sincos(), it may be necessary to disable gcc(1) builtin optimizations, using flags such as:

	   cc -O -lm -fno-builtin prog.c
