Degrees(
       x             ! (input) numerical expression
       )

Arguments

x

A scalar numerical expression.

Return Value

The function Degrees returns the value of x converted from radians to degrees.

Example

_p_returnA := degrees(p_pi  ); ! degrees(pi)   = 180
_p_returnB := degrees(p_pi/2); ! degrees(pi/2) =  90
_p_returnC := degrees(   0  ); ! degrees(0)    =   0
_p_returnD := degrees(p_pi/4); ! degrees(pi/4) =  45  1

Note

The function Degrees can be used in constraints of linear and nonlinear mathematical programs.
