NAME
|
|
tanh - hyperbolic tangent
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
tanh(x [,eps])
|
|
|
|
TYPES
|
|
x real
|
|
eps nonzero real, defaults to epsilon()
|
|
|
|
return real
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
Calculate the tanh of x to the nearest or next to nearest multiple of
|
|
epsilon, with absolute error less than .75 * abs(eps).
|
|
|
|
tanh(x) = (exp(2*x) - 1)/(exp(2*x) + 1)
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
|
> print tanh(1, 1e-5), tanh(1, 1e-10), tanh(1, 1e-15), tanh(1, 1e-20)

LIMITS
|
|
unlike sin and cos, x must be real
|
|
eps > 0
