NAME
ctanh -- complex hyperbolic tangent function
SYNOPSIS
double complex ctanh(double complex z); long double complex ctanhl(long double complex z); float complex ctanhf(float complex z);
DESCRIPTION
ctanh(z) computes the hyperbolic tangent of the complex floating-point number z. For all complex floating point numbers z, ctanh(conj(z)) = conj(ctanh(z)), ctanh(-z) = -ctanh(z).
SPECIAL VALUES
The symmetries of ctanh() are used to abbreviate the specification of special values. ctanh(0 + 0i) returns 0 + 0i. ctanh(0 + inf i) returns NaN + NaN i, and raises the invalid flag. ctanh(0 + NaN i) returns NaN + NaN i. ctanh(x + inf i) returns NaN + NaN i, and raises the invalid flag, for finite nonzero x. ctanh(x + NaN i) returns NaN + NaN i, for finite nonzero x. ctanh(inf + 0i) returns 1 + 0i. ctanh(inf + yi) returns 1 +- 0i, for finite positive y, with the sign chosen to match the sign of sin(2y). ctanh(inf + inf i) returns 1 + 0i. ctanh(inf + NaN i) returns 1 + 0i. ctanh(NaN + 0i) returns NaN + 0i. ctanh(NaN + yi) returns NaN + NaN i, for nonzero numbers y. ctanh(NaN + NaN i) returns NaN + NaN i.
