ASINH(3)                            Linux Programmer's Manual                            ASINH(3)



NAME
       asinh, asinhf, asinhl - inverse hyperbolic sine function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <math.h>

       double asinh(double x);
       float asinhf(float x);
       long double asinhl(long double x);

       Link with -lm.

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       asinh():
           _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500 ||
           _XOPEN_SOURCE && _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED || _ISOC99_SOURCE ||
           _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L;
           or cc -std=c99
       asinhf(), asinhl():
           _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 600 || _ISOC99_SOURCE ||
           _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L;
           or cc -std=c99

DESCRIPTION
       The asinh() function calculates the inverse hyperbolic sine of x; that is the value  whose
       hyperbolic sine is x.

RETURN VALUE
       On success, these functions return the inverse hyperbolic sine of x.

       If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned.

       If x is +0 (-0), +0 (-0) is returned.

       If  x  is  positive infinity (negative infinity), positive infinity (negative infinity) is
       returned.

ERRORS
       No errors occur.

ATTRIBUTES
   Multithreading (see pthreads(7))
       The asinh(), asinhf(), and asinhl() functions are thread-safe.

CONFORMING TO
       C99, POSIX.1-2001.  The variant returning double also conforms to SVr4, 4.3BSD, C89.
