angles in degrees don't seem to work

DeanS

when I plot sin((360/40)w) for w from 0 to 40 with the angle options set to degrees I don't get the expected complete sine wave. Instead I get a series of sine waves. However leaving the angle options in degrees and plot sin((2pi/40)w) from w = 0 to 40 I do get the expected one complete sine wave.

What's wrong with my method?

I think there's a bug with angle mode, since it appears to always plot in radians.

Shakey, Thanks, Now I know it isn't just me. Any ideas on when we could expect a bug fix?

This is a bug and is now fixed for the next update. Unfortunately there's no temporary fix that would work for the current version (v5.2).

DeanS

When will that be?

The same thing appears to be broken with complex numbers. I can't get it to display polar notation in degrees. Is it just me?

Abarch, could you post an example of the bug?
