Reduce x to positive by atanh(-x) = -atanh(x) 2. For x>=0.5 1 2x x atanh(x) = --- * log(1 + -------) = 0.5 * log1p(2 * --------) 2 1 - x 1 - x For x<0.5 atanh(x) = 0.5*log1p(2x+2x*x/(1-x)) Special cases: atanh(x) is NaN if |x| > 1 with signal; atanh(NaN) is that NaN with no signal; atanh(+-1) is +-INF with signal.
Atanh returns the inverse hyperbolic tangent of x. Special cases are: Atanh(1) = +Inf Atanh(±0) = ±0 Atanh(-1) = -Inf Atanh(x) = NaN if x < -1 or x > 1 Atanh(NaN) = NaN
