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) ≡ (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]
