WTF is a circular calculation? Decimal is always easier to calculate
things in.
Probably a calculation using angles. 180 degrees (angle) is half a
circle, but IIRC angular degrees have nothing to do with temperature.
BTW, metric uses a different unit to measure angles, and it has nothing
to do with temperature either.
Never heard of a metric version of degrees.
Grads have one hundred divisions per quarter circle.
