I notice that expr evaluates sin() etc calculations in radians - is it possible to evaluate them in degrees? I don't see any reference to this issue in the documentation.

You'll probably have to roll your own: radians to degrees is x * 

180. / 3.1416 [-ish]. If you want to be all structured-programming 

about it, loadbang a 180/pi into a rightmost inlet of the expr. 

(That's the closest MaxMSP gets to a #define statement.)
