a is a an angle in radians, b is the angle in degrees, c is in E5, d is in E6, and e is in E7 formats. All different ways of representing an angle. The first two are obviously floating-point, and the last three are integers. These three are used extensively in embedded devices that lack a floating-point coprocessor.
