NAME

     acosh, acoshf -- inverse hyperbolic cosine function


LIBRARY

     Math Library (libm, -lm)


SYNOPSIS

     #include <math.h>

     double
     acosh(double x);

     float
     acoshf(float x);


DESCRIPTION

     The acosh() and acoshf() functions compute the inverse hyperbolic cosine
     of the real argument x.


RETURN VALUES

     If x is less than one, acosh(x) and acoshf(x) return NaN and set the
     global variable errno to EDOM.
