+<DT>1.
+<DD>NDP less than zero is interpreted as zero.
+<DT>2.
+<DD>The largest useful value for NDP is determined by the size of
+ANGLE, the format of REAL floating-point numbers on the target
+ machine, and the risk of overflowing IDMSF(4). For example,
+ on a VAX computer, for ANGLE up to <IMG WIDTH="20" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
+ SRC="img52.gif"
+ ALT="$2\pi$">, the available floating-point
+ precision corresponds roughly to NDP=3. This is well below
+ the ultimate limit of NDP=9 set by the capacity of the 32-bit
+ integer IHMSF(4).
+ <DT>3.
+<DD>The absolute value of ANGLE may exceed <IMG WIDTH="20" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
+ SRC="img52.gif"
+ ALT="$2\pi$">. In cases where it
+ does not, it is up to the caller to test for and handle the
+ case where ANGLE is very nearly <IMG WIDTH="20" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
+ SRC="img52.gif"
+ ALT="$2\pi$"> and rounds up to <IMG WIDTH="34" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
+ SRC="img53.gif"
+ ALT="$360^{\circ}$">, by testing for IDMSF(1)=360 and setting IDMSF(1-4) to zero.
