# std::sin

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | numeric‎ | math

Defined in header `<cmath>` |  |
float sin( float arg ); |  |
double sin( double arg ); |  |
long double sin( long double arg ); |  |
double sin( Integral arg ); |  | (since C++11)

Computes sine of `arg`.

### [edit] Parameters

arg | - | value representing angle in radians, of a floating-point or Integral type

### [edit] Return value

Sine of `arg` in the range [-1 ; +1].

Domain error occurs if `arg` is infinite. NAN is returned in that case.
