RE: [Orekit Users] Advice on FastMath.toRadians

Luc,

Thank you for your help. It works great. 
Lambda functions are new to me and now I see quite a few places where I can use them in the code.

Best regards,

Bogdan

You may try this, if senEulerAng is declared as final so it is available in the context of the lambda generator function:

    Arrays.setAll(senEulerAng, i -> FastMath.toRadians(senEulerAng[i]));
