Argument type and attributes
- X
- must be of type real or complex. If X is real, it is regarded
as a value in radians. If X is complex, its real and imaginary parts
are regarded as values in radians.
Result type and attributes
Same as X.
Result value
It approximates sin(X).
Examples
SIN (1.0)
has the value 0.84147098 (approximately).

Notes: - 1 IBM Extension: the
ability to pass the name as an argument.
- Given that X is a complex number in the form a + bi, where i = (-1)½:
- 2a abs(b) must be less than or
equal to 88.7228; a is any real value.
- 2b abs(b) must be less than or
equal to 709.7827; a is any real value.
