acosh -- inverse hyperbolic cosine function SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> double acosh(double x); DESCRIPTION
The acosh() function computes the inverse hyperbolic cosine of the real argument x. SPECIAL VALUES
acosh(1) returns +0. acosh(x) returns a NAN and raises the "invalid" floating-point exception for x < 1. acosh(+infinity) returns +infinity. SEE ALSO

ACOSH(3) BSD Library Functions Manual ACOSH(3) NAME
acosh -- inverse hyperbolic cosine function SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> double acosh(double x); long double acoshl(long double x); float acoshf(float x); DESCRIPTION
The acosh() function computes the principle value of the inverse hyperbolic cosine of x. The result is in the range [0, +infinity]. SPECIAL VALUES
acosh(1) returns +0. acosh(x) returns a NAN and raises the "invalid" floating-point exception for x < 1. acosh(+infinity) returns +infinity. VECTOR OPERATIONS
If you need to apply the acosh() function to SIMD vectors or arrays, using the following functions provided by the Accelerate.framework may give significantly better performance: #include <Accelerate/Accelerate.h> vFloat vacoshf(vFloat x); void vvacoshf(float *y, const float *x, const int *n); void vvacosh(double *y, const double *x, const int *n); SEE ALSO
