DESCRIPTION
The atanh() function calculates the inverse hyperbolic tangent of x; that is the value whose hyperbolic tangent is x.RETURN VALUE
On success, these functions return the inverse hyperbolic tangent of x.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 less than -1 or greater than +1
- errno is set to EDOM. An invalid floating-point exception ( FE_INVALID) is raised.
- Pole error: x is +1 or -1
- errno is set to ERANGE (but see BUGS). A divide-by-zero floating-point exception ( FE_DIVBYZERO) is raised.
CONFORMING TO
C99, POSIX.1-2001. The variant returning double also conforms to SVr4, 4.3BSD, C89.BUGS
In glibc 2.9 and earlier, when a pole error occurs, errno as set to EDOM instead of the POSIX-mandated ERANGE. Since version 2.10, glibc does the right thing.SEE ALSO
