COSH — Hyperbolic cosine function

Description

COSH(X) computes the hyperbolic cosine of X.

Syntax

X = COSH(X)

Arguments

X The type shall be REAL or COMPLEX.

Return value

The return value has same type and kind as X. If X is complex, the imaginary part of the result is in radians. If X is REAL, the return value has a lower bound of one, \cosh (x) \geq 1.

Example


program test_cosh
  real(8) :: x = 1.0_8
  x = cosh(x)
end program test_cosh
