Asinh

Returns the inverse hyperbolic sine of a number.

Syntax

Asinh( x )

Notes

• Defined for every number. The inverse of Sinh.
• Overloaded on float64 and on float32: a single-precision argument takes the single-precision path and does not widen.
• BOUNDED accuracy: correct to the platform library's stated ulp bound.

Examples

#import "std/numeric"
using numeric

print Asinh( 1.0 )           '' 0.881373587019543
print Asinh( Sinh( 0.7 ) )   '' 0.6999999999999998
