### 8.250 `SIND` — Sine function, degrees

Description:

  `SIND(X)` computes the sine of X in degrees.

  This function is for compatibility only and should be avoided in favor of standard constructs wherever possible.

Standard:

  GNU extension, enabled with `-fdec-math`.

Class:

  Elemental function

Syntax:

  `RESULT = SIND(X)`

Arguments:

  X | The type shall be `REAL` or `COMPLEX`.

Return value:

  The return value has same type and kind as X, and its value is in degrees.

Example:

      program test_sind
        real :: x = 0.0
        x = sind(x)
      end program test_sind

Specific names:

  Name | Argument | Return type | Standard
  --- | --- | --- | ---
  `SIND(X)` | `REAL(4) X` | `REAL(4)` | GNU extension
  `DSIND(X)` | `REAL(8) X` | `REAL(8)` | GNU extension
  `CSIND(X)` | `COMPLEX(4) X` | `COMPLEX(4)` | GNU extension
  `ZSIND(X)` | `COMPLEX(8) X` | `COMPLEX(8)` | GNU extension
  `CDSIND(X)` | `COMPLEX(8) X` | `COMPLEX(8)` | GNU extension
