Computes the complex arc hyperbolic tangent of z with branch cuts outside the interval [−1; +1] along the real axis.

[edit] Parameters

[edit] Return value

If no errors occur, the complex arc hyperbolic tangent of z is returned, in the range of a half-strip mathematically unbounded along the real axis and in the interval [−iπ/2; +iπ/2] along the imaginary axis.

[edit] Error handling and special values

Errors are reported consistent with math_errhandling.

If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic,

[edit] Notes

Although the C++ standard names this function "complex arc hyperbolic tangent", the inverse functions of the hyperbolic functions are the area functions. Their argument is the area of a hyperbolic sector, not an arc. The correct name is "complex inverse hyperbolic tangent", and, less common, "complex area hyperbolic tangent".

Inverse hyperbolic tangent is a multivalued function and requires a branch cut on the complex plane. The branch cut is conventionally placed at the line segments (-∞,-1] and [+1,+∞) of the real axis.

The mathematical definition of the principal value of the inverse hyperbolic tangent is atanh z = .
For any z, atanh(z) = .

[edit] Example

Output:

atanh(2.000000,0.000000) = (0.549306,1.570796) atanh(2.000000,-0.000000) (the other side of the cut) = (0.549306,-1.570796) atanh(1.000000,2.000000) = (0.173287,1.178097) atan(-2.000000,1.000000) / i = (0.173287,1.178097)
