The acosh() function calculates the inverse hyperbolic cosine of x; that is the value whose hyperbolic cosine is x.
On success, these functions return the inverse hyperbolic cosine of x.
If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
If x is +1, +0 is returned.
If x is positive infinity, positive infinity is returned.
If x is less than 1, a domain error occurs, and the functions return a NaN.
See math_error(7) for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred when calling these functions.
The following
errors can occur:
Domain error: x is less than 1
errno is set to EDOM. An invalid floating-point exception (FE_INVALID) is raised.
C99, POSIX.1-2001. The variant returning double also conforms to SVr4, 4.3BSD, C89.
