Subject: 25.0.95; Calc;
 calc-simplify-units not working as documented for trigometric
 functions
Date: Sun, 03 Jul 2016 19:05:17 +0200
In Calc do

'sin(45 deg)
u s

Result: 0.0137073546047
Expected result: 0.707106781187

The actual result equals to sin(pi/4) in deg mode whereas the expected
result of "the sine of 45 degrees" is the one documented in
(info "(calc) Trigonometric and Hyperbolic Functions").

The same applies for other trigonometric functions and for other values
of 45 or the 'deg' unit (i.e. 'rad or 'grad').

This was originally a bug report from David Ongaro in 
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2016-07/msg00050.html

Thanks

 calc-simplify-units not working as documented
 for trigometric functions
Date: Mon, 4 Jul 2016 17:18:52 +0900 (JST)
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Thanks for the report.

From the documentation:

"(‘calc-simplify-units’) command will simplify ‘sin(45 deg)’ by taking
the sine of 45 degrees, regardless of the current angular mode."

The problem is that ‘calc-simplify-units’ is actually checking the value
of 'calc-angle-mode'.

There is an internal variable 'math-simplifying-units'; 
'match-simplify-units' bind this var to a non-nil value
while performing its task.

Following patch use 'math-simplifying-units' to prevent that
'calc-simplify-units' use the value of 'calc-angle-mode'.

Regards,
Tino

Subject: [PATCH] Ignore angle mode when simplifying units

* lisp/calc/calc-forms.el (math-to-hms, math-from-hms):
Ignore value of 'calc-angle-mode' when 'math-simplifying-units'
evaluates non-nil (Bug#23889).

* lisp/calc/calc-math.el (math-to-radians)
(math-from-radians-2, math-to-radians-2): Idem.
