NAME

       sincos, sincosf, sincosl - calculate sin and cos simultaneously

SYNOPSIS

       #define _GNU_SOURCE         /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
       #include <math.h>

       void sincos(double x, double *sin, double *cos);
       void sincosf(float x, float *sin, float *cos);
       void sincosl(long double x, long double *sin, long double *cos);

       Link with -lm.

DESCRIPTION

       Several  applications need sine and cosine of the same angle x.  These functions compute both at the same
       time, and store the results in *sin and *cos.

       If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned in *sin and *cos.

       If x is positive infinity or negative infinity, a domain error occurs, and a NaN is returned in *sin  and
       *cos.

RETURN VALUE

       These functions return void.

ERRORS

       See  math_error(7)  for  information on how to determine whether an error has occurred when calling these
       functions.

       The following errors can occur:

       Domain error: x is an infinity
              An invalid floating-point exception (FE_INVALID) is raised.

       These functions do not set errno.

VERSIONS

       These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
