A signed floating-point number expressed in sexagesimal.

Input Format:

A Sexagesimal number, optionally prefixed with a sign character.

Use with do-loops:

When a Sexagesimal variable is used as the dependent variable of a do-loop, the associated loop increment is also an Sexagesimal.

Examples:

In the following example the increment argument of a do-loop is specified as a Sexagesimal constant.

  do Azimuth a=50:10:20, 20:10:12, -10:0:0 {
    print "Azimuth = ", $Azimuth
  }

Context:

This datatype is mainly used to specify do-loop increments when the loop variable is an unsigned floating point datatype that is also expressed in sexagesimal.
