Improve builtin function strings, as printed by help builtin,
that use an optional accuracy (epsilon) arg by adding a comma.
Added the following new trigonometric functions:
crd(x [,eps]) trigonometric chord of a unit circle
acrd(x [,eps]) inverse trigonometric chord of a unit circle

NAME
|
|
exsec - exterior trigonometric secant
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
exsec(x [,eps])
|
|
|
|
TYPES
|
|
x number (real or complex)
|
|
eps 0 < real < 1, defaults to epsilon()
|
|
|
|
return real
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
Calculate the exterior trigonometric secant of x to a multiple of eps, with error less
|
|
in absolute value than .75 * eps.
|
|
|
|
This function is equivalent to:
|
|
|
|
exsec(x) = sec(x) - 1
|
|
