sinh(3M)

NAME

     sinh - hyperbolic sine function

SYNOPSIS

     cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lm [ library ... ]
     #include <math.h>

     double sinh(double x);

DESCRIPTION

     The sinh() function computes the hyperbolic sine of x.

RETURN VALUES

     Upon successful completion, sinh()  returns  the  hyperbolic
     sine of x.

     If the result would cause an overflow, _HUGE_VAL is returned
     and errno is set to ERANGE.

     If x is NaN, NaN is returned.

     For exceptional cases, matherr(3M) tabulates the  values  to
     be returned as dictated by Standards other than XPG4.

ERRORS

     The sinh() function will fail if:

     ERANGE
           The result would cause overflow.

USAGE

     An application wishing to check for error situations  should
     set  errno  to 0 before calling sinh(). If errno is non-zero
     on return,  or  the  return  value  is  NaN,  an  error  has
     occurred.
