Description

These functions calculate the inverse hyperbolic sine of x ; that is the value whose hyperbolic sine is x.

Return Value

On success, these functions return the inverse hyperbolic sine of x.

If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned.

If x is +0 (-0), +0 (-0) is returned.

If x is positive infinity (negative infinity), positive infinity (negative infinity) is returned.

Errors

No errors occur.
