Why Turns Can Beat Radians
The article argues that using turns, a [0,1] circle-based scale, can simplify trigonometric code by avoiding repeated conversions to and from radians. It also notes that common fractional turn values are often represented more exactly in floating-point than radian equivalents, which can improve precision and reduce unnecessary computation.
