php.js uses JsLint to help us keep our code consistent and prevent some common bugs.

Eventually we want all code to pass or at least take into consideration most fixes suggested by JsLint, following this JsLint configuration we’ve decided on.

  @Kambfhase, Good point. That would be a nice optimization to add to the compiler at some point. In the case of the namespaced version, it could similarly be assigned directly on the prototype (as with a number of the other Math methods).

  Instead of creating an extra function I recommend

var sin = Math.sin;
