I made this simple implementation.

I see the geeksforgeeks article is for drawing a circle. To go really classic, I'd suggest Minsky's algorithm. It draws an approximation of a circle, but I understand it's good enough to do trigonometry on a satellite.

Ha! Interesting. Thank you! I will take a look at your implementation.
