Re: trig

You can also approximation trig functions using a finite number of terms from the Taylor series.

For instance, arctan(x) is approximately equal to X - X^3/3 + X^5/5 - X^7/7
When -1<X<1

I'm not a coder, so I don't know what you’re trying to do, but from what I do understand about code, a Taylor series approximation should be fairly easy to implement.
