Converting Between Degrees And Radians
Description
Here is an example of a simple Sage interact. In order to convert radians to degrees we multiply the radians by $\dfrac{180}{\pi}$. The Sage cell below shows the degrees of $\pi$ radians.

Code
@interact
def _(radians = input_box(default= pi)):
degrees = radians*(180/pi)
pretty_print(html(r"$radians = %s$" %radians))
pretty_print(html(r"$degrees = %s$" %degrees))
