If you really want to do math, you might want to look at CORDIC
functions. They are fast, accurate, and can even do integer trig. A
search of the web should bring up many references (Google found about
11,500). HP use(d) these in their pocket calculators to great effect.
I have to admit they are weird to understand and implement, however I
did manage to do it once, long ago.
