cacosh(3)                  Library Functions Manual                  cacosh(3)

NAME
       cacosh, cacoshf, cacoshl - complex arc hyperbolic cosine

LIBRARY
       Math library (libm, -lm)

SYNOPSIS
       #include <complex.h>

       double complex cacosh(double complex z);
       float complex cacoshf(float complex z);
       long double complex cacoshl(long double complex z);

DESCRIPTION
       These functions calculate the complex arc hyperbolic cosine of z.  If
       y = cacosh(z), then z = ccosh(y).  The imaginary part of y is chosen in
       the interval [-pi,pi].  The real part of y is chosen nonnegative.

       One has:

           cacosh(z) = 2 * clog(csqrt((z + 1) / 2) + csqrt((z - 1) / 2))
