    The formula should read:

    =0.0425*(1-COS(RADIANS(A1))+0.75*SIN(RADIANS(2*A1)))
    "In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are not."

    Does that equation look right to you? I'm a bit confused with what you put up in the first post.
    that didnt work without commas in excel anyway. Im going to sleep now,ill check back around 6am tomorrow

    Hmm, if anyone can get me the MatLab formula I'll plot it and put it up here. I can't figure it out on MatLab.

    You should be able to set up windows/excel to parse them properly easily enough. It's just in the options somewhere.

    Decimal points ftw btw. Just fyi.
