A sinusoidal function is a function that is like a sine function in the sense that the function can be produced by shifting, stretching or compressing the sine function.
A sinusoid is a mathematical function that describes a smooth repetitive oscillation.
The site shows and explains different ways to model sinusoidal functions.
