Added implementation ideas.

Thanks for the reply. Where is the angle variable in that equation? Wouldn't w1 = sin(x) be better for a program? Maybe I'm not understanding correctly.

Yes, I was just pointing out that the sine of 45 degrees is one over the square root of two. You'd probably just write w1 = 1 / sqrt(2).

Thank you! Please excuse my ignorance, but what do I use in my code from this equation: w1 = sin(45) = 1/sqrt(2)? Having the two equal signs confuses me: is it saying that the sin(45) == 1/sqrt(2)?
