.SH NAME
cacosh, cacoshf, cacoshl \- complex arc hyperbolic cosine
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <complex.h>
.sp
.BI "double complex cacosh(double complex " z );
.br
.BI "float complex cacoshf(float complex " z );
.br
.BI "long double complex cacoshl(long double complex " z );
.sp
Link with \fI\-lm\fP.
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR cacosh ()
function calculates the complex arc hyperpolic cosine of
.IR z .
If \fIy\ =\ cacosh(z)\fP, then \fIz\ =\ ccosh(y)\fP.
The imaginary part of
.I y
is chosen in the interval [\-pi,pi].
The real part of
.I y
is chosen nonnegative.
.LP
One has:
.nf

    cacosh(z) = 2 * clog(csqrt((z + 1) / 2) + csqrt((z \- 1) / 2))
.fi
.SH VERSIONS
These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
.SH "CONFORMING TO"
C99.
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
/* 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 = cacosh(z);
    printf("cacosh() = %6.3f %6.3f*i\\n", creal(c), cimag(c));

    f = 2 * clog(csqrt((z + 1)/2) + csqrt((z \- 1)/2));
    printf("formula  = %6.3f %6.3f*i\\n", creal(f2), cimag(f2));

    exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
