Hardrock

Be aware that there might be rounding errors in the results of this command.

cos 90

for example doesn't return the expected '0', but '-4.37114e-008'. So, if you want to compare results of Cosinus, don't use the compare operator

(cos 90) == 0

but rather use less than.

(cos 90) < 0.00001
