Package Exports

@stdlib/math-base-special-fast-acosh
@stdlib/math-base-special-fast-acosh/lib/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@stdlib/math-base-special-fast-acosh) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

acosh

$NPM version$ $Build Status$ $Coverage Status$

Compute the hyperbolic arccosine of a number.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-base-special-fast-acosh

Usage

var acosh = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-fast-acosh' );

acosh( x )

Computes the hyperbolic arccosine of a number (in radians).

var v = acosh( 1.0 );
// returns 0.0

v = acosh( 2.0 );
// returns ~1.317

v = acosh( 0.5 );
// returns NaN

The domain of x is restricted to [1,+infinity). If x < 1, the function will return NaN.

var v = acosh( 0.0 );
// returns NaN

Notes

For large x, the function will overflow.

var v = acosh( 1.0e308 );
// returns Infinity
// (expected 709.889355822726)

Examples

var linspace = require( '@stdlib/array-base-linspace' );
var acosh = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-fast-acosh' );

var x = linspace( 1.0, 5.0, 103 );

var i;
for ( i = 0; i < x.length; i++ ) {
    console.log( acosh( x[ i ] ) );
}

Notice

This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
