Operator Aspects
The SIN operator can be used in various expressions. Similarly, the SIN function is invoked in Structured Text statements. Both applications of SIN return a floating point result containing the sine of the Source. Depending on the context, this value may then be type converted if appropriate.
Description
The SIN instruction takes the sine of the Source value (in radians) and stores the result in the Destination.
The SIN operator or function computes the sine of Source and returns the floating point result. The resulting value is always greater than or equal to -1 and less than or equal to 1.
