CSC

CSC: Returns the cosecant of an angle, defined as `1 / SIN(angle)`.

Summary

Use CSC for reciprocal-sine calculations in radian-based formulas.

Remarks

  • Domain: valid for all real angles except where SIN(angle) = 0.
  • Radians: input is interpreted in radians.
  • Errors: returns #DIV/0! at or near integer multiples of PI().
