359 degrees + 2 degrees = 1 degree?

Just something I was wondering about, do degrees skip the 360 degrees threshold in world editor? And how about radians?

 

[AceHart]

Well, x degrees = x + 360 degrees = x + 2 * 360 degrees = x + 3 * 360 degrees = ...

Same for radians. Difference being that the period is 2 * PI, not 360.

Ok, thanks Acehart. I did know that, but just wanted to make sure world editor did it the correct way.

World Editor is for nothing there (or not much at least).
That's just the way those periodic functions work...

Degrees and radians aren't function, it's just that sine and cosine, one of the things you use most when working with radians / degrees are represented in a goniometric circle.
