SINH Function

Returns the hyperbolic sine of the input variable.

enabled.

Usage

result = SINH(x)

Input Parameters

x—The angle, in radians, that is evaluated.

Returned Value

result—The hyperbolic sine of x.

Keywords

None.

Discussion

SINH is defined by:

sinh(x) º (e x – e–x)/2

If x is of double-precision floating-point or of complex data type, SINH yields a result of the same type. All other data types yield a single-precision floating-point result.

If x is an array, the result of SINH has the same dimensions, with each element containing the hyperbolic sine of the corresponding element of x.

Example

x = [0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9]
PRINT, SINH(x)
; PV-WAVE prints: 0.304520    0.521095    0.758584   1.02652
