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

       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.

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.
