atanhl(3) OSS Library Calls Reference Manual
NAME
atanhl - Computes the inverse hyperbolic tangent function for a long double value
LIBRARY
H-series and J-series native Guardian processes: $SYSTEM.ZDLLnnn.ZCREDLL
32-bit H-series and J-series OSS processes: /G/system/zdllnnn/zcredll
64-bit H-series and J-series OSS processes: /G/system/zdllnnn/ycredll
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
long double atanhl(
long double x);
PARAMETERS
x Is the long double value for which the inverse hyperbolic tangent function is to
be computed.
DESCRIPTION
The atanhl( ) function is a long double version of the atanh( ) function; it takes a long double
argument and returns a long double result.
The atanhl( ) function computes the inverse hyperbolic tangent of x.
The atanhl( ) function can be called only by native processes.
NOTES
This function supports both IEEE Std 754-1985 floating-point and Tandem floating-point values.
IEEE values can include NaN and infinity, and the sign of 0.0 (zero) can be either positive or
negative. Refer to the fp_class(3) reference page for a description of IEEE value classes.
Guardian functions are available to convert between floating-point formats. Refer to the Guar-
dian Programmer’s Guide for a discussion of floating-point conversions.
RETURN VALUES
The atanhl( ) function returns the inverse hyperbolic tangent of the x parameter.
For IEEE floating-point values, when the value of x is NaN, the atanhl( ) function returns NaN.
When the absolute value of x is 1.0, the atanhl( ) function returns +HUGE_VALL or
-HUGE_VALL as appropriate and sets errno to [ERANGE]. When the absolute value of x is
greater than 1.0, the atanhl( ) function returns NaN and sets errno to [EDOM].
For Tandem floating-point values, when the absolute value of x is 1.0, the atanhl( ) function
returns +HUGE_VALL or -HUGE_VALL as appropriate and sets errno to [ERANGE]. When
the absolute value of x is greater than 1.0, the atanhl( ) function returns HUGE_VALL and sets
errno to [EDOM].
ERRORS
If any of the following conditions occur, the atanhl( ) function sets errno to the corresponding
value:
[EDOM] The absolute value of the x parameter is greater than 1.0.
[ERANGE] The absolute value of the x parameter is equal to 1.0.
