## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var sinc = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/sinc' );
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### sinc( x )
|
||
|
|
||
|
Computes the normalized [cardinal sine][sinc] of a `number`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var v = sinc( 0.5 );
|
||
|
// returns ~0.637
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = sinc( -1.2 );
|
||
|
// returns ~-0.156
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = sinc( 0.0 );
|
||
|
// returns 1.0
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = sinc( NaN );
|
||
|
// returns NaN
|
||
|
```
