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) / (1 - z))
 

VERSIONS

These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
