NAME

acosh, acoshf, acoshl – inverse hyperbolic cosine functions

CONTENTS

LIBRARY

Math Library (libm, -lm)

SYNOPSIS

#include <math.h>

double
acosh(double x);

float
acoshf(float x);

long double
acoshl(long double x);

DESCRIPTION

The acosh(), acoshf(), and acoshl() functions compute the inverse hyperbolic cosine of the real argument x. For a discussion of error due to roundoff, see math(3).

RETURN VALUES

These functions return the inverse hyperbolic cosine of x. If the argument is less than 1, acosh() raises an invalid exception and returns an NaN.

SEE ALSO

asinh(3), atanh(3), exp(3), fenv(3), math(3)

HISTORY

The acosh(), acoshf(), and acoshl() functions appeared in BSD 4.3, FreeBSD 2.0, and FreeBSD 10.0, respectively.

An ASCII character walks into a bar and orders a double. "Having a bad day?" asks the barman. "Yeah, I have a parity error," replies the ASCII character. The barman says, "Yeah, I thought you looked a bit off."
