I am converted some FORTRAN code into IDL, but I am confused what this
FORTRAN statment "SINE(X)=SIN(.01745329*X) " in this function is trying
to do.

FUNCTION GETDIST (HEIGHT,ANGLE,ZENANG,SLANT)
DATA RAD/3437.748/
SINE(X)=SIN(.01745329*X)
ARCSIN(X)=57.29578*ASIN(X)
ANG=ABS(ANGLE)
FAC=SINE(ANG)/RAD
.
.
.

Any hints?
