        ; Assign a Local constant variable the approximate PI number.
        Local Const $PI = 3.141592653589793

        ; Assign a Local variable the sine of PI / 4 (equals to Sqrt(2) / 2).
        Local $fSin1 = Sin($PI / 4)

        ; Display the result.
        MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", $fSin1)

        ; Assign a Local variable the formula to switch from radian to degree (equals to one degree in radian).
        Local $fDegToRad = $PI / 180

        ; Assign a Local variable the sine of 90 degrees (firstly converted to radians).
        Local $fSin2 = Sin(90 * $fDegToRad)

        ; Display the result.
