NAME

     asinh, asinhf, asinhl - inverse hyperbolic sine function

SYNOPSIS

     #include <math.h>

     double asinh(double x);
     float asinhf(float x);
     long double asinhl(long double x);

     Link with -lm.

 Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

     asinh():
         _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L
             || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500
             || /* Since glibc 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE
             || /* Glibc versions <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE

     asinhf(), asinhl():
         _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 sine of x; that is the
     value whose hyperbolic sine is x.

RETURN VALUE

     On success, these functions return the inverse hyperbolic sine of x.

     If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned.

     If x is +0 (-0), +0 (-0) is returned.

     If x is positive infinity (negative infinity), positive infinity (nega-
     tive infinity) is returned.

ERRORS

     No errors occur.

CONFORMING TO

     C99, POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008.

     The variant returning double also conforms to SVr4, 4.3BSD.
