Coordinate Rotation Digital Computer, an efficient algorithm used for calculating trigonometric functions, hyperbolic functions, and other operations using only additions, subtractions, and bit shifts. This iterative method is particularly useful in digital signal processing and embedded systems where hardware multipliers are scarce. It can compute functions like sine, cosine, and arctangent with high precision.
