NAME ahacovercos - inverse half coversed trigonometric cosine SYNOPSIS ahacovercos(x [,eps]) TYPES x number (real or complex) eps 0 < real < 1, defaults to epsilon() return number DESCRIPTION Calculate the inverse half coversed trigonometric cosine of x to a multiple of eps with error less in absolute value than .75 * eps. This function is sometimes called ahacvc, or archacovercos, or archacovercosine, is equivalent to: ahacovercos(x) = asin(2*x - 1) EXAMPLE ; print ahacovercos(0), ahacovercos(0.5), ahacovercos(1) -1.57079632679489661923 0 1.57079632679489661923 ; print ahacovercos(-0.5), ahacovercos(-1) -1.57079632679489661923+1.31695789692481670863i -1.57079632679489661923+1.76274717403908605045i ; print ahacovercos(.5, 1e-5), ahacovercos(.5, 1e-10), ahacovercos(.5, 1e-15), ahacovercos(.5, 1e-20) 0 0 0 0 ; print ahacovercos(5), ahacovercos(5i) 1.57079632679489661923-2.88727095035762068499i -0.09918204387849273625+3.00312524371312921749i ; print ahacovercos(5+5i) 0.73144212314418701068+3.29254348147605425075i ; pi = pi(1e-20) ; print ahacovercos(pi/6), ahacovercos(pi/3) 0.04721509173238348552 1.57079632679489661923-0.4311526751624601302i ; print ahacovercos(4*pi/3) 1.57079632679489661923-2.68696776930293700505i LIMITS 0 < eps < 1 LINK LIBRARY NUMBER *qahacovercos(NUMBER *x, NUMBER *eps) COMPLEX *c_ahacovercos(COMPLEX *x, NUMBER *eps) SEE ALSO sin, cos, tan, cot, sec, csc asin, acos, atan, acot, asec, acsc versin, coversin, vercos, covercos aversin, acoversin, avercos, acovercos haversin, hacoversin, havercos, hacovercos ahaversin, hacoversin, havercos epsilon ## Copyright (C) 2023 Landon Curt Noll ## ## Calc is open software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under ## the terms of the version 2.1 of the GNU Lesser General Public License ## as published by the Free Software Foundation. ## ## Calc is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ## ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY ## or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
