The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux. .\" .SH NAME tanh, tanhf, tanhl \(em hyperbolic tangent functions .SH SYNOPSIS .LP .nf #include .P double tanh(double \fIx\fP); float tanhf(float \fIx\fP); long double tanhl(long double \fIx\fP); .fi .SH DESCRIPTION The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the ISO\ C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the ISO\ C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017 defers to the ISO\ C standard. .P These functions shall compute the hyperbolic tangent of their argument .IR x . .P An application wishing to check for error situations should set .IR errno to zero and call .IR feclearexcept (FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if .IR errno is non-zero or \fIfetestexcept\fR(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred. .SH "RETURN VALUE" Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the hyperbolic tangent of .IR x . .P If .IR x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned. .P If .IR x is \(+-0, .IR x shall be returned. .P If .IR x is \(+-Inf, \(+-1 shall be returned. .P If .IR x is subnormal, a range error may occur .br and .IR x should be returned. .P If .IR x is not returned, \fItanh\fR(), \fItanhf\fR(), and \fItanhl\fR() shall return an implementation-defined value no greater in magnitude than DBL_MIN, FLT_MIN, and LDBL_MIN, respectively. .SH ERRORS These functions may fail if: .IP "Range\ Error" 12 The value of .IR x is subnormal. .RS 12 .P If the integer expression (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then .IR errno shall be set to .BR [ERANGE] . If the integer expression (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the underflow floating-point exception shall be raised. .RE .LP .IR "The following sections are informative." .SH EXAMPLES None. .SH "APPLICATION USAGE" On error, the expressions (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERRNO) and (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other, but at least one of them must be non-zero. .SH RATIONALE None. .SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS" None. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IR "\fIatanh\fR\^(\|)", .IR "\fIfeclearexcept\fR\^(\|)", .IR "\fIfetestexcept\fR\^(\|)", .IR "\fIisnan\fR\^(\|)", .IR "\fItan\fR\^(\|)" .P The Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017, .IR "Section 4.20" ", " "Treatment of Error Conditions for Mathematical Functions", .IR "\fB\fP" .\" .SH COPYRIGHT Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in electronic form from IEEE Std 1003.1-2017, Standard for Information Technology -- Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX), The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 7, 2018 Edition, Copyright (C) 2018 by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and The Open Group.
