.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
The
|
||
|
|
.Fn acosh
|
||
|
|
and the
|
||
|
|
.Fn acoshf
|
||
|
|
functions compute the inverse hyperbolic cosine
|
||
|
|
of the real
|
||
|
|
argument
|
||
|
|
.Ar x .
|
||
|
|

|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
||
|
|
The
|
||
|
|
.Fn acosh
|
||
|
|
and the
|
||
|
|
.Fn acoshf
|
||
|
|
functions
|
||
|
|
return the inverse hyperbolic cosine of
|
||
|
|
.Ar x .
|
||
|
|
If the argument is less than 1,
|
||
|
|
.Fn acosh
|
||
|
|
raises an invalid exception and returns an \*(Na.
