Convert an angle given in decimal degrees to a DMS string:

Convert to a DMS string that specifies one of the cardinal directions:

Convert a {lat, lon} pair in degrees to a double DMS string with cardinal directions:

Convert a DMS list into a DMS string:

For exact input, the result also contains exact numbers:

By default, DMSString ignores signs:

They can be kept by using cardinal directions, either for latitude ("NS") or for longitude ("EW"):

Convert a numeric angle in degrees into a DMS string:

A signed angle:

By default, DMSString produces numbers with three decimals for seconds:

The number of digits can be decreased or increased:

The precision parameter only affects the results of inexact inputs:

Convert a {lat, lon} pair in degrees to a double DMS string:

Specify the number of decimals to be shown for seconds:

On DMS strings, DMSString returns a canonical form:

The choice of cardinal direction is still free:

Act on a GeoPosition object, returning a pair "lat long":

Convert a Quantity angle into a DMS string:

If the input contains any inexact number, the result will be inexact, always in the seconds:

Only when all numbers are exact will the result be exact:

The action of DMSString on a DMS list can be inverted with DMSList :

With exact numbers:

The action of DMSString on a numeric angle in degrees can be inverted with FromDMS :

With exact numbers, DMSString returns a numerical approximation:

Hence the original exact number cannot be directly recovered:
