      The float package provides commands to define new floats
      of various styles (plain, boxed, ruled, and userdefined ones);
      the rotating package provides new environments (sidewaysfigure
      and sidewaystable) which are rotated by 90 or 270 degrees.
      But what about new rotated floats, e.g. a rotated ruled one?
      This package makes this possible; it builds a bridge between both
      packages and extend the commands from the float package to define
      rotated versions of the new floats, too.
