#### Procedure
       SpiceDouble rpd_c ( void )
#### Abstract
       Return the number of radians per degree.
#### Required_Reading
       None.
#### Keywords
       CONSTANTS
#### Brief_I/O
       The function returns the number of radians per degree.
#### Detailed_Input
       None.
#### Detailed_Output
       The function returns the number of radians per degree: pi/180.
       The value of pi is determined by the ACOS function. That is,

          rpd = acos ( -1. ) / 180.
#### Parameters
       None.
#### Exceptions
       Error free.
#### Files
       None.
#### Particulars
       When the function is referenced, the value computed as shown
       above is returned.
#### Examples
       The code fragment below illustrates the use of rpd_c.

          /. Convert all angles to radians for output  ./

             clock *= rpd_c()
             cone  *= rpd_c()
             twist *= rpd_c()
#### Restrictions
       None.
#### Literature_References
       None.
