NAME
    sin - trigonometric sine

SYNOPSIS
    sin(x [,eps])

TYPES
    x           number (real or complex)
    eps         0 < real < 1, defaults to epsilon()

    return      number

DESCRIPTION
    Calculate the trigonometric sine of x to a multiple of eps with error less in
    absolute value than .75 * eps.

EXAMPLE
    ; print sin(1/2), sin(5/7), sin(42/7)
    0.47942553860420300027 0.6550778971785185742 -0.27941549819892587281

    ; print sin(1, 1e-5), sin(1, 1e-10), sin(1, 1e-15), sin(1, 1e-20)
    0.84147 0.8414709848 0.841470984807896 0.84147098480789650665

    ; print sin(2 + 3i, 1e-5), sin(2 + 3i, 1e-10)
    9.1545-4.16891i 9.1544991469-4.16890696i

    ; pi = pi(1e-20)
    ; print sin(pi/6), sin(pi/2), sin(pi)
    0.5 1 0

LIMITS
    0 < eps < 1
