Just out of curiosity, we were talking in our Calc class about Taylor Polynomials, and the teacher suggested maybe that is how a calculator/computer takes the sine of a number. Does any one know where I can go and see how the computer finds the sine of a number?
***BTW I checked the Math class included in flash and it says its a “intrinsic class Math” and this is the function that defines sin = “static function sin(value:Number):Number;” What does that mean?
