49.Sh DESCRIPTION 50The |
51.Fn atanh , 52.Fn atanhf , 53and 54.Fn atanhl |
55functions compute the inverse hyperbolic tangent 56of the real 57argument 58.Ar x . 59For a discussion of error due to roundoff, see 60.Xr math 3 . 61.Sh RETURN VALUES |
62These functions |
63return the inverse hyperbolic tangent of 64.Ar x 65if successful. 66If the argument has absolute value 1, a divide-by-zero exception 67is raised and an infinity is returned. 68If 69.Ar |x| 70> 1, an invalid exception is raised and an \*(Na is returned. 71.Sh SEE ALSO 72.Xr acosh 3 , 73.Xr asinh 3 , 74.Xr exp 3 , 75.Xr fenv 3 , 76.Xr math 3 77.Sh HISTORY 78The |
