ASIND (The GNU Fortran Compiler) (original) (raw)
8.20 ASIND — Arcsine function, degrees ¶
Synopsis:
RESULT = ASIND(X)
Description:
ASIND(X) computes the arcsine of its X in degrees (inverse ofSIND(X)).
Class:
Elemental function
Arguments:
| X | The type shall be either REAL and a magnitude that is less than or equal to one. |
|---|
Return value:
The return value is of the same type and kind as X. The result is in degrees and lies in the range_-90 \leq \Re \asin(x) \leq 90_.
Example:
program test_asind real(8) :: x = 0.866_8 x = asind(x) end program test_asind
Specific names:
| Name | Argument | Return type | Standard |

| ASIND(X) | REAL(4) X | REAL(4) | Fortran 2023 |
| DASIND(X) | REAL(8) X | REAL(8) | GNU extension |
Standard:
