NAME
tanh, tanhf, tanhl - hyperbolic tangent functions

LIBRARY
libm

SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double
tanh(double x);
float
tanhf(float x);
long double
tanhl(long double x);

DESCRIPTION
The tanh(), tanhf(), and tanhl() functions compute the hyperbolic tangent of x. For a discussion of error due to roundoff, see math(3).

RETURN VALUES
The tanh(), tanhf(), and the tanhl() functions return the hyperbolic tangent value.
