I don't know if it is the degrees to radians conversion or not. This uses 39 digits. The series expansion for the trig functions are calculated with additional digits too.
- Pauli

The Intel library also uses extended precision for the trig functions, I don't think you'll see differences when using radians.

? Free42, at the very least, rounds to even (upon my request, even). Can you give an example of Free42 rounding incorrectly?
