// The original C code, the long comment, and the constants
// below were from http://netlib.sandia.gov/cephes/cmath/sin.c,
// available from http://www.netlib.org/cephes/cmath.tgz.
// The go code is a simplified version of the original C.

//      tan.c
//
//      Circular tangent
//
// SYNOPSIS:
//
// double x, y, tan();
// y = tan( x );
//
// DESCRIPTION:
//
// Returns the circular tangent of the radian argument x.
//
// Range reduction is modulo pi/4.  A rational function
//       x + x**3 P(x**2)/Q(x**2)
// is employed in the basic interval [0, pi/4].
//
// ACCURACY:
//                      Relative error:
// arithmetic   domain     # trials      peak         rms
//    DEC      +-1.07e9      44000      4.1e-17     1.0e-17
//    IEEE     +-1.07e9      30000      2.9e-16     8.1e-17
//
// Partial loss of accuracy begins to occur at x = 2**30 = 1.074e9.  The loss
// is not gradual, but jumps suddenly to about 1 part in 10e7.  Results may
// be meaningless for x > 2**49 = 5.6e14.
// [Accuracy loss statement from sin.go comments.]
