acosh, acoshf, acoshl - inverse hyperbolic cosine functions SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> double acosh(double x); float acoshf(float x); long double acoshl(long double x); DESCRIPTION
These functions shall compute the inverse hyperbolic cosine of their argument x. An application wishing to check for error situations should set errno to zero and call feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if errno is non-zero or fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred. RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the inverse hyperbolic cosine of their argument. For finite values of x < 1, a domain error shall occur, and either a NaN (if supported), or an implementation-defined value shall be returned. If x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned. If x is +1, +0 shall be returned. If x is +Inf, +Inf shall be returned. If x is -Inf, a domain error shall occur, and either a NaN (if supported), or an implementation-defined value shall be returned. ERRORS
These functions shall fail if: Domain Error The x argument is finite and less than +1.0, or is -Inf. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [EDOM]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the invalid floating-point exception shall be raised. The following sections are informative. EXAMPLES
None. APPLICATION USAGE
On error, the expressions (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) and (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other, but at least one of them must be non-zero. RATIONALE
None. FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None. SEE ALSO

acosh, acoshf, acoshl -- inverse hyperbolic cosine functions SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> double acosh(double x); float acoshf(float x); long double acoshl(long double x); DESCRIPTION
The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1-2008 defers to the ISO C standard. These functions shall compute the inverse hyperbolic cosine of their argument x. An application wishing to check for error situations should set errno to zero and call feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if errno is non-zero or fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred. RETURN VALUE
