       This  manual  page  is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of
       this interface may differ (consult the corresponding Linux  manual  page  for  details  of
       Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

NAME

       asinh, asinhf, asinhl — inverse hyperbolic sine functions

SYNOPSIS

       #include <math.h>

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

DESCRIPTION

       The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the ISO C standard. Any
       conflict between the requirements described here and the ISO C standard is  unintentional.
       This volume of POSIX.1‐2017 defers to the ISO C standard.

       These functions shall compute the inverse hyperbolic sine of their argument x.

       An  application  wishing  to  check for error situations should set errno to zero and call
       feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if errno  is  non-
       zero  or fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero,
       an error has occurred.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the inverse  hyperbolic  sine  of
       their argument.

       If x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.

       If x is ±0, or ±Inf, x shall be returned.

       If x is subnormal, a range error may occur
       and x should be returned.

       If  x  is  not  returned,  asinh(), asinhf(), and asinhl() shall return an implementation-
       defined value no greater in magnitude than DBL_MIN, FLT_MIN, and LDBL_MIN, respectively.

ERRORS

       These functions may fail if:

       Range Error The value of x is subnormal.

                   If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO)  is  non-zero,  then
                   errno shall be set to [ERANGE].  If the integer expression (math_errhandling &
                   MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the underflow floating-point exception shall
                   be raised.

       The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES

       None.

APPLICATION USAGE

       On  error,  the  expressions  (math_errhandling  &  MATH_ERRNO)  and  (math_errhandling  &
       MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other, but at least one of them must be non-zero.

RATIONALE

       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS

       None.
