## Usage
```javascript
var coversin = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/coversin' );
```
#### coversin( x )
Computes the [coversed sine][coversed-sine] (in radians).
```javascript
var v = coversin( 0.0 );
// returns 1.0
v = coversin( 3.141592653589793/2.0 );
// returns 0.0
v = coversin( -3.141592653589793/6.0 );
// returns 1.5
```

## Examples
<!-- eslint no-undef: "error" -->
```javascript
var linspace = require( '@stdlib/array/linspace' );
var TWO_PI = require( '@stdlib/constants/float64/two-pi' );
var coversin = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/coversin' );
var x = linspace( 0.0, TWO_PI, 100 );
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < x.length; i++ ) {
console.log( coversin( x[ i ] ) );
}
