[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48307] sinc loses precision for large arguments

[Colin Macdonald]

Follow-up Comment #31, bug #48307 (project octave):

> So, for me the original report is not a bug and sin works in the right way.
Of course, it is possible in principle to enhance the accuracy of sinc, but I
do not see an easy way.

Please, the "original report" never said *sin* didn't work; that particular
tangent was not my fault ;-)

> Are you aware of any other software working in pure double precision doing
better for the original report? 

Not that I found, see my review in comment #28.
