All user functions are listed in commands.c. Looking at the COS entry there:

Code:

    FUNC(OP_COS,    &decNumberCos,        &cmplxCos,    NOFN,        "COS",        CNULL)

This means that the opcode is based on OP_COS, the real version of the function is decNumberCos, the complex version is cmplxCos and that there is no integer version (although the automatic defaulting will take place I think and use the real version here in a very uninteresting manner). The function name is COS and there is no alias for this function for the assembler.

From this, it is straightforward enough to search for decNumberCos which lives in decn.c


This is the same process I use to find many functions. I don't remember where they all live, although I can often guess it is faster to look in commands.c first.
