.. index:: sine, degrees

.. function:: SIND(X)

  ``SIND(X)`` computes the sine of :samp:`{X}` in degrees.

  :param X:
    The type shall be ``REAL`` or
    ``COMPLEX``.

  :return:
    The return value has same type and kind as :samp:`{X}`, and its value is in degrees.

  :samp:`{Standard}:`
    GNU extension, enabled with :option:`-fdec-math`.

  :samp:`{Class}:`
    Elemental function

  :samp:`{Syntax}:`

  .. code-block:: fortran

    RESULT = SIND(X)

  :samp:`{Example}:`

    .. code-block:: fortran

      program test_sind
        real :: x = 0.0
        x = sind(x)
      end program test_sind
