n = 2; // Order of diffraction
N = 6500; // Number of lines per cm on grating, lines/cm
a_plus_b = 1/6500; // Grating element, cm
// As a_plus_b*sin(theta1)=n*lambda1, solving for theta1
theta1 = asind(n*lambda_D1/a_plus_b);
// As a_plus_b*sin(theta2)=n*lambda2, solving for theta1
theta2 = asind(n*lambda_D2/a_plus_b);
d_theta = theta2-theta1; // Angular separation between the sodium D1 and D2 lines, degrees
[mint, secnd] = degmin(d_theta); // Call deg_2_degmin function
printf("\nThe angular separation between the sodium D1 and D2 lines = %d minutes %d seconds", mint, secnd);
// Result
// The angular separation between the sodium D1 and D2 lines = 4 minutes 10 seconds
// Since theta1 and theta2 are rounded off in the textbook, therefore the answer is mismatching.
