atanhf(3)

atanhf3

Inverse hyperbolic tangent functions

Part of atanh(3).

Usage

#include <math.h>

double

atanh(double x);

float

atanhf(float x);

long double

atanhl(long double x);

Library

Math Library (libm, -lm)

Overview

The atanh(), atanhf(), and atanhl() functions compute the inverse hyperbolic tangent of the real argument x. For a discussion of error due to roundoff, see math(3).

Return values

These functions return the inverse hyperbolic tangent of x if successful. If the argument has absolute value 1, a divide-by-zero exception is raised and an infinity is returned. If |x| > 1, an invalid exception is raised and an is returned.
