Degrees for me as I prefer to think in integers as often as possible!

Another curious thing about radians is that common angles are (I assume) inexpressable in floating point - eg: PI*2 (probably) isn't exactly equal to '360 degrees' whereas '360' certainly is. Ditto I expect for '90 degrees' etc.

It's kind of moot since everything is converted to radians for the FPU, but it does mean that while I would trust this to do with I think it should...

For i#=0 To 360 Step 90

...I wouldn't trust this...

For i#=0 To PI2 Step PI2/4
