SINH

Purpose:

Calculates the hyperbolic sine of any expression.

Syntax:

SINH(val)

val

-

A scalar, series or table.

Returns:

A scalar, series, or table.

Example:

sinh(-5..0.01..5);gridhv;griddot

displays the hyperbolic sine from –5 to 5.

Example:

sinh(pi)

 

returns 11.54873936.

Example:

sinh(ln(phi))

 

returns 0.5

Example:

sinh(-2..0.1..2)

 

returns a 41 point series.

Remarks:

The hyperbolic sine is defined as:

for all complex z.

 

SETDEGREE and SETRADIAN have no effect on this function because it always operates in radians.
