NAME sinh - hyperbolic sine SYNOPSIS sinh(x [,eps]) TYPES x real eps nonzero real, defaults to epsilon() return real DESCRIPTION Calculate the sinh of x to the nearest or next to nearest multiple of epsilon, with absolute error less than .75 * abs(eps). sinh(x) = (exp(x) - exp(-x))/2 EXAMPLE ; print sinh(1, 1e-5), sinh(1, 1e-10), sinh(1, 1e-15), sinh(1, 1e-20) 1.1752 1.1752011936 1.175201193643801 1.17520119364380145688 LIMITS unlike sin and cos, x must be real eps > 0 LINK LIBRARY NUMBER *qsinh(NUMBER *x, NUMBER *eps) SEE ALSO cosh, tanh, sech, csch, coth, epsilon ## Copyright (C) 1999 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.
