DECDMS^MATH : STRING ( X : REAL , PREC : INTEGER : O )
$%DECDMS^MATH returns a string, containing the ° ' " notation for the angle that is specified in X in degrees. Since the symbols for degrees, minutes, and seconds are not in the ASCII set, the fields in the result-value are separated by colons (":"); the value of the first part is an integer in the range [0,359]; the value in the second part is an integer in the range [0,59]; the value in the third part is a real number in the range [0,60). The optional parameter PREC specifies the precision to which X is rounded before the conversion takes place. If not specified, a default value of 5 digits is assumed for PREC.
