Taylor series calculation sin(x)

Hello! i write a function to caculate sin(x) and x should be typed in degree measure, but when i push the button 'Run', i can't get the values. i cant figure why. Hier is the code:

function s= sinus(x)
s=0;
for n=0:1:Inf
 a=2*n+1;   
 b=((-1)^n)*((x^a)/(factorial(a)));
 s=s+b;
end
end

Thanks for your help!

You have an infinite loop for n=0:1:Inf

The infinite series you are using requires that x be in radians, not degrees. The easiest thing to do is to first convert x to radians by multiplying by pi/180.

This a function, you can't run it like you run a script. You need to save it as sinus.m then from the windows command type

x=15
y=sinus(x)
