NAME

6       casin, casinf, casinl - complex arc sine
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <complex.h>
10
11       double complex casin(double complex z);
12       float complex casinf(float complex z);
13       long double complex casinl(long double complex z);

DESCRIPTION

18       These  functions calculate the complex arc sine of z.  If y = casin(z),
19       then z = csin(y).  The real  part  of  y  is  chosen  in  the  interval
20       [-pi/2,pi/2].
21
22       One has:
23
24           casin(z) = -i clog(iz + csqrt(1 - z * z))
25

VERSIONS

27       These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
