// --- define the name of the file
#declare outputFileName = "out.txt";

#declare steep = radians(10);

// --- open the file for writting
#fopen outFile outputFileName write

#declare xx=0;
#while (xx<2*pi)
  #declare yy=sin(xx);
  #declare formatedValue=concat(str(yy,12,11),"\n");
  // --- write formated value value to the file
  #write (outFile, formatedValue)
  #declare xx=xx+steep;
#end

// --- close the file
#fclose outFile
