              I was a very happy bunny when I twigged that instead of calculating the sine and cosine of angles, I could have a simple lookup array [0..90] and use that with integer degree angles.

              It's good enough for plotting curves on a monitor. Or was, for whatever it was I was writing at the time in 1984. (Which ran on a terminal on a DMS HiNet network.)

                Hi everyone
                Eeyore was very glad to be able to stop thinking for a little, in order to say "How do you do" in a gloomy manner to Pooh.
                "And how are you?" said Winnie-the-Pooh.
                Eeyore shook his head from side to side. "Not very how," he said. "I don't seem to felt at all how for a long time."
