> The result of these methods is unreliable and changes across jvm versions: we cannot use these methods.
> The following program prints 0.7722082215479366 on previous versions of java but 0.7722082215479367 on java 9 because Math.toRadians is no longer doing the same thing:
> {code}
> public class test {
>   public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
>     System.out.println(Math.toRadians(44.244272));
>   }
> }
> {code}
> This is because of https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-4477961. 
> I am not really sure its a bug, because the method says that the conversion is "generally inexact".
