 Undeclared name:
 Degrees used at line 9
 
 So how does one use the two functions?

it seems that to-radians() is specified, but not yet implemented in Rakudo
(see, for example line 71 in
https://github.com/perl6/roast/blob/master/S32-num/cool-num.t; the test is
skipped for Rakudo).

BTW: doc.perl6.org is a good resource for documentation of the currently
implemented parts of the spec.  The written spec has also come to mean
speculation rather than specification.  The specification is basically
the roast test suite at present.

Hope that helps,

Paul
