Added new aversin(x, [,eps]) for inverse versed sine and acoversin(x, [,eps]) for inverse coversed sine. Improved trig function help files to reference use of complex arguments that while supported were not documented. Removed old Makefile testing rules for make dbx and make gdb. Improved "make run" to execute calccalc using shared libraries from the local directory, and with reading of the startup scripts disabled. Changed "make prep" to perform various tests that are used to help verify that calc is ready for a release. Added Makefile testing rule testfuncsort to check for the sort of the builtin function list. Changed the order that builtin functions are listed by "show builtin" and the help/builtin to match the sorting of "LANG=C LC_ALL=C sort -d -u".

NAME
|
|
asec - inverse trigonometric secant
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
asec(x [,eps])
|
|
|
|
TYPES
|
|
x number (real or complex)
|
|
eps 0 < real < 1, defaults to epsilon()
|
|
|
|
return real

|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
Returns the inverse secant of x to a multiple of eps with error less in
|
|
absolute value than .75 * eps.
