NAMEacosh(), acoshf(), acoshl(), acoshw(), acoshq() — arc hyperbolic cosine functions DESCRIPTIONacosh() returns the arc hyperbolic cosine of x, in the range +zero to +INFINITY. Integrity Server Onlyacoshf() is a float version of acosh(); it takes a float argument and returns a float result. acoshl() is a long double version of acosh(); it takes a long double argument and returns a long double result. acoshw() is an extended version of acosh(); it takes an extended argument and returns an extended result. acoshq() is equivalent to acoshl() on HP-UX systems. USAGETo use (for Integrity servers) acoshf(), acoshl(), acoshw(), or acoshq(), compile either with the default -Ae option or with the -Aa and -D_HPUX_SOURCE options. To use (for Integrity servers) acoshw() or acoshq(), compile also with the -fpwidetypes option. To use any of these functions, make sure your program includes <math.h>, and link in the math library by specifying -lm on the compiler or linker command line. For more information, see the HP-UX floating-point guide for HP Integrity servers at the following site: http://www.hp.com/go/fp. RETURN VALUEacosh() returns +0. If x < 1.0, acosh() returns NaN and raises the invalid exception. If x is +INFINITY, acosh() returns +INFINITY. If x is NaN, acosh() returns NaN. When it raises no other exception, whether acosh() raises the inexact exception is unspecified. |
