NAME

12       asinh, asinhf, asinhl - inverse hyperbolic sine functions
13

SYNOPSIS

15       #include <math.h>
16
17       double asinh(double x);
18       float asinhf(float x);
19       long double asinhl(long double x);

DESCRIPTION

23       These functions shall compute the  inverse  hyperbolic  sine  of  their
24       argument x.
25
26       An  application  wishing to check for error situations should set errno
27       to zero and  call  feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT)  before  calling  these
28       functions.   On return, if errno is non-zero or fetestexcept(FE_INVALID
29       | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error  has
30       occurred.
31

RETURN VALUE

33       Upon  successful  completion,  these functions shall return the inverse
34       hyperbolic sine of their argument.
35
36       If x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.
37
38       If x is ±0, or ±Inf, x shall be returned.
39
40       If x is subnormal, a range error may occur and x should be returned.
41

ERRORS

43       These functions may fail if:
44
45       Range Error
46              The value of x is subnormal.
47
48       If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is  non-zero,
49       then  errno  shall  be  set  to  [ERANGE].  If  the  integer expression
50       (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is  non-zero,  then  the  underflow
51       floating-point exception shall be raised.

EXAMPLES

57       None.

APPLICATION USAGE

60       On   error,   the   expressions  (math_errhandling  &  MATH_ERRNO)  and
61       (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other,  but
62       at least one of them must be non-zero.
63

RATIONALE

65       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
