acosh, acoshf, acoshl - inverse hyperbolic cosine function SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> double acosh(double x); float acoshf(float x); long double acoshl(long double x); Link with -lm. Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)): acosh(): _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500 || /* Since glibc 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE || /* Glibc versions <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE acoshf(), acoshl(): _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L || /* Since glibc 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE || /* Glibc versions <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE DESCRIPTION
These functions calculate the inverse hyperbolic cosine of x; that is the value whose hyperbolic cosine is x. RETURN VALUE
On success, these functions return the inverse hyperbolic cosine of x. If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned. If x is +1, +0 is returned. If x is positive infinity, positive infinity is returned. If x is less than 1, a domain error occurs, and the functions return a NaN. ERRORS
See math_error(7) for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred when calling these functions. The following errors can occur: Domain error: x is less than 1 errno is set to EDOM. An invalid floating-point exception (FE_INVALID) is raised. ATTRIBUTES

cosh, coshf, coshl - hyperbolic cosine function SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> double cosh(double x); float coshf(float x); long double coshl(long double x); Link with -lm. Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)): coshf(), coshl(): _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L || /* Since glibc 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE || /* Glibc versions <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE DESCRIPTION
These functions return the hyperbolic cosine of x, which is defined mathematically as: cosh(x) = (exp(x) + exp(-x)) / 2 RETURN VALUE
On success, these functions return the hyperbolic cosine of x. If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned. If x is +0 or -0, 1 is returned. If x is positive infinity or negative infinity, positive infinity is returned. If the result overflows, a range error occurs, and the functions return +HUGE_VAL, +HUGE_VALF, or +HUGE_VALL, respectively. ERRORS
See math_error(7) for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred when calling these functions. The following errors can occur: Range error: result overflow errno is set to ERANGE. An overflow floating-point exception (FE_OVERFLOW) is raised. ATTRIBUTES

In glibc version 2.3.4 and earlier, an overflow floating-point (FE_OVERFLOW) exception is not raised when an overflow occurs. SEE ALSO
