Comments

The sequences A026317, A327136, A327137 partition the nonnegative integers.

Conjecture: 1.285 < n*Pi - a(n) < 1.286 for n >= 1.

Examples

			(sin 2, sin 4, ...) = (0.9, -0.7, -0.2, 0.9, -0.5, ...) approximately, so that the differences, in sign, are - + + -  + + - - + - - + ..., with "+" in places 2,3,5,6,... (A026317), "- +" starting in places 1,4,8,11,... (A327136), and "- - +" starting in places 7,10,13,16,... (A327137).
