VB.NET Asin Example – Code Sample Syntax
VB.NET Asin Example – Code Sample Syntax
Purpose: – Illustrates using VB.NET Asin Code Example.
Purpose:
takes a double data type number that represents a sine and
returns a double value that represents the angle of that sine when
measured in radians. (you can convert the radians to degrees by
multiplying them by Math.PI/180)
Syntax:
Asin(double)
Asin(double)
Parameters | Description | double | The expression represents a sine that is to be converted into radians of an angle. Any valid System.Double data type number between -1 and +1 if number < -1 or > 1, NaN is returned – NaN stands for Not a Number |
---|
Result Data Type | Description | double | represents the radians of the angle of the sine that was specified as the input parameter. |

- Attach Northwind Database to Databases in Sql Express
- Attach pubs Database to Databases in Sql Express
Notes:
- Console Application is used to simplify things, but Windows Forms or Web Forms could also be used
- You can build a library of syntax examples by using same project over and over and just commenting out what you do not want to execute in Module1.vb
