NAME

ACOSH(3) - [MATHEMATICS:TRIGONOMETRIC] Inverse hyperbolic cosine function

SYNOPSIS

result = acosh(x)

         elemental TYPE(kind=KIND) function acosh(x)

          TYPE(kind=KIND),intent(in) :: x

CHARACTERISTICS

o TYPE may be real or complex

o KIND may be any kind supported by the associated type.

o The returned value will be of the same type and kind as the argument.

DESCRIPTION

ACOSH(3) computes the inverse hyperbolic cosine of X in radians.

OPTIONS

o X : The value to compute the hyperbolic cosine of. A real value should be >= 1 or the result with be a Nan.

RESULT

The result has a value equal to a processor-dependent approximation to the inverse hyperbolic cosine function of X.
If X is complex, the imaginary part of the result is in radians and lies between

0 <= aimag(acosh(x)) <= PI

EXAMPLES

Sample program:

    program demo_acosh
    use,intrinsic :: iso_fortran_env, only : dp=>real64,sp=>real32
    implicit none
    real(kind=dp), dimension(3) :: x = [ 1.0_dp, 2.0_dp, 3.0_dp ]
       if( any(x.lt.1) )then
          write (*,*) ’ warning: values < 1 are present’
       endif
       write (*,*) acosh(x)
    end program demo_acosh
