# Kernel Sine
> Compute the [sine][sine] of a number on `[-π/4, π/4]`.
<section class="usage">
## Usage
```javascript
var kernelSin = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/kernel-sin' );
```
#### kernelSin( x, y )
Computes the [sine][sine] of a `number` on `[-π/4, π/4]`. For increased accuracy, the number for which the [sine][sine] should be evaluated can be supplied as a [double-double number][double-double-arithmetic] (i.e., a non-evaluated sum of two [double-precision floating-point numbers][ieee754] `x` and `y`).
```javascript
var v = kernelSin( 0.0, 0.0 );
// returns ~0.0
v = kernelSin( 3.141592653589793/6.0, 0.0 );
// returns ~0.5
v = kernelSin( 0.619, 9.279e-18 );
// returns ~0.58
v = kernelSin( NaN, 0.0 );
// returns NaN
v = kernelSin( 3.0, NaN );
// returns NaN
v = kernelSin( NaN, NaN );
// returns NaN
```

## Notes
- As components of a [double-double number][double-double-arithmetic], the two [double-precision floating-point numbers][ieee754] `x` and `y` must satisfy
