cos: "Integer Required"?!?!?!?

[moonman]

print self.ACphi, type(self.ACphi) yields:
19412557 <type 'int'>

value = XPLMGetDataf(self.ACphi); print value  type(value ) yields:
-0.674469709396 <type 'float'>

print math.radians(XPLMGetDataf(self.ACphi)),
type(math.radians(XPLMGetDataf(self.ACphi))) yields:

TypeError
:
an integer is required

Am I totally missing something about 'math'. Does it really expect an
int?
