CATANH(3) Linux Programmer's Manual CATANH(3)

NAME

catanh, catanhf, catanhl - complex arc tangents hyperbolic

SYNOPSIS

#include <complex.h>
double complex catanh(double complex z);
 
float complex catanhf(float complex z);
 
long double complex catanhl(long double complex z);
Link with -lm.

DESCRIPTION

The catanh() function calculates the complex arc hyperbolic tangent of z. If y = catanh(z), then z = ctanh(y). The imaginary part of y is chosen in the interval [-pi/2,pi/2].
One has:
catanh(z) = 0.5 * (clog(1 + z) - clog(1 - z))

VERSIONS

These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.

CONFORMING TO

C99.

EXAMPLE

/* Link with "-lm" */
#include <complex.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { double complex z, c, f;
if (argc != 3) { fprintf(stderr, "Usage: %s <real> <imag>\n", argv[0]); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); }
z = atof(argv[1]) + atof(argv[2]) * I;
c = catanh(z); printf("catanh() = %6.3f %6.3f*i\n", creal(c), cimag(c));
f = 0.5 * (clog(1 + z) - clog(1 - z)); printf("formula = %6.3f %6.3f*i\n", creal(f2), cimag(f2));
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS); }
