Back to the trenches with me. I'm starting with a 2d space till i can wrap my head around it. The code and examples i am finding are not matching up in 3d space. Here's my closest attempt which still is wrong. Can anyone help?
# 2 points on a plane
my $x = 2;
my $y = 1;
#yang is the y-angle 0-360 i want to rotate by
my $yang = 45;
#convert yang to radians
$yang = 3.14159265358979*$yang/180;
#rad is the radius of my sphere
my $rad = sqrt($x**2 + $y**2);
my $x = cos($yang)*$rad;
my $y = sin($yang)*$rad;
print "x=$x\ny=$y\n";
Advice appreciated.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
