Detailed Description of Radian-Degree Calculator 2.65

Radian-Degree Calculator is a Windows program for:
*converting radians to and from degrees, minutes and seconds
*converting decimal degrees to and from degrees, minutes and seconds,
*converting decimal degrees to and from degrees and decimal minutes, and
*performing addition and subtraction of angles

Input values may be in the range -360 0' 0" through 360 0' 0" for degrees and the equivalent for radians (thus -2 through 2). Addition and subtraction of angles is modulo 2, as shown in the second conversion/addition in the example above. The number of decimal places in the results can be increased or decreased by setting the value for 'Significant figures' (from 6 through 9).

When the 'Round to minutes' checkbox is checked, the result in degrees is rounded to the nearest minute. When the 'Output in decimal' checkbox is checked, the result is given either in (a) decimal degrees or (b) degrees and decimal minutes. An input radian value may be negative. To input a negative degrees value, enter the value and click on the 'Change sign' button.

To convert decimal degrees (plus optionally decimal minutes and decimal seconds) into degrees, minutes and seconds, enter the degrees value and click on the 'Degrees to radians' button, then click on the 'Radians to degrees' button.

To convert decimal degrees into degrees plus decimal minutes, or vice-versa, enter the degrees value and click on the 'Degrees to radians' button, then click on the 'Radians to degrees' button, as illustrated in the results shown below. Make sure that the 'Output in decimal' checkbox is checked, and the decimal degrees/minutes selection is appropriate.

Addition and subtraction of angle values may be performed as follows:

*To add an angle A to an angle B, where the values are given in radians:
Enter B in the 'Radians' textbox, then enter A in the second textbox, then click on the '+' button.
*To subtract an angle A from an angle B, where the values are given in radian
