bug#23889: 25.0.95; Calc; calc-simplify-units not working as documented


From: H. Dieter Wilhelm
Subject: bug#23889: 25.0.95; Calc; calc-simplify-units not working as documented for trigometric functions
Date: Sun, 03 Jul 2016 19:05:17 +0200

In Calc do

'sin(45 deg)
u s

Result: 0.0137073546047
Expected result: 0.707106781187

The actual result equals to sin(pi/4) in deg mode whereas the expected
result of "the sine of 45 degrees" is the one documented in
(info "(calc) Trigonometric and Hyperbolic Functions").

The same applies for other trigonometric functions and for other values
of 45 or the 'deg' unit (i.e. 'rad or 'grad').

This was originally a bug report from David Ongaro in 
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2016-07/msg00050.html

Thanks
        Dieter
