aversinf

Compute the inverse versed sine of a single-precision floating-point number (in radians).

The inverse versed sine is defined as

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-base-special-aversinf

Usage

var aversinf = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-aversinf' );

aversinf( x )

Computes the inverse versed sine of a single-precision floating-point number (in radians).

var v = aversinf( 0.0 );
// returns 0.0

v = aversinf( 3.141592653589793 / 2.0 );
// returns ~2.1783

v = aversinf( 3.141592653589793 / 6.0 );
// returns ~1.0742

If x < 0, x > 2, or x is NaN, the function returns NaN.

var v = aversinf( -1.0 );
// returns NaN

v = aversinf( 3.14 );
// returns NaN

v = aversinf( NaN );
// returns NaN

Examples

var uniform = require( '@stdlib/random-array-uniform' );
var logEachMap = require( '@stdlib/console-log-each-map' );
var aversinf = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-aversinf' );

var x = uniform( 100, 0.0, 2.0, {
    'dtype': 'float32'
});

logEachMap( 'aversinf(%0.4f) = %0.4f', x, aversinf );

C APIs

Usage

#include "stdlib/math/base/special/aversinf.h"

stdlib_base_aversinf( x )

Computes the inverse versed sine of a single-precision floating-point number (in radians).

float out = stdlib_base_aversinf( 3.141592653589793f / 2.0f );
// returns ~2.1783f

If x < 0, x > 2, or x is NaN, the function returns NaN.

float out = stdlib_base_aversinf( 3.141592653589793f );
// returns NaN

The function accepts the following arguments:

• x: [in] float input value.

float stdlib_base_aversinf( const float x );

Examples

#include "stdlib/math/base/special/aversinf.h"
#include <stdio.h>

int main( void ) {
    const float x[] = { -2.5f, -2.0f, -1.5f, -1.0f, -0.5f, 0.5f, 1.0f, 1.5f, 2.0f, 2.5f };

    float v;
    int i;
    for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
        v = stdlib_base_aversinf( x[ i ] );
        printf( "aversinf(%f) = %f\n", x[ i ], v );
    }
}
