[algorithm] What is the method for converting radians to degrees?

x rads in degrees - > x*180/pi
x degrees in rads -> x*pi/180

I guess if you wanted to make a function for this [in PHP]:

function convert($type, $num) {
    if ($type == "rads") {
          $result = $num*180/pi();
        }

    if ($type == "degs") {
          $result = $num*pi()/180;
        }

    return $result;
  }

Yes, that could probably be written better.
