degrees

> # NAME

> degrees - converts values of scalars and vectors from radians to degrees

> # SYNOPSIS

>       float  degrees( float  a );
>       float1 degrees( float1 a );
>       float2 degrees( float2 a );
>       float3 degrees( float3 a );
>       float4 degrees( float4 a );

>       half   degrees( half  a );
>       half1  degrees( half1 a );
>       half2  degrees( half2 a );
>       half3  degrees( half3 a );
>       half4  degrees( half4 a );

>       fixed  degrees( fixed  a );
>       fixed1 degrees( fixed1 a );
>       fixed2 degrees( fixed2 a );
>       fixed3 degrees( fixed3 a );
>       fixed4 degrees( fixed4 a );

> # PARAMETERS

> a

>   Vector or scalar of which to convert from radians to degrees.

> # DESCRIPTION

> Returns the scalar or vector converted from radians to degrees.

> For vectors, the returned vector contains each element of the input vector converted from radians to degrees.

> # REFERENCE IMPLEMENTATION

> degrees for a float scalar could be implemented like this.

>       float degrees(float a)
>       {
>         return 57.29577951 * a;
>       }

> # PROFILE SUPPORT

> degrees is supported in all profiles except fp20.
