Computes the reciprocal of <a class="link" href="inv_hyper_over.html" title="Inverse Hyperbolic Functions Overview">the
hyperbolic tangent function</a>, at x.
</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
The final <a class="link" href="../../policy.html" title="Policies">Policy</a> argument
is optional and can be used to control the behaviour of the function:
how it handles errors, what level of precision to use etc. Refer to the
<a class="link" href="../../policy.html" title="Policies">policy documentation for more details</a>.
</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
If x is in the range <code class="literal">]-&#8734;;-1[</code> or in the range <code class="literal">]+1;+&#8734;[</code>
then returns the result of <a class="link" href="../../main_overview/error_handling.html#domain_error">domain_error</a>.
</p>
<p>
If x is in the range <code class="literal">[-1;-1+&#949;[</code>, then the result of -<a class="link" href="../../main_overview/error_handling.html#overflow_error">overflow_error</a> is returned, with &#949; &#8203;
denoting
numeric_limits&lt;T&gt;::epsilon().
</p>
<p>
If x is in the range <code class="literal">]+1-&#949;;+1]</code>, then the result of <a class="link" href="../../main_overview/error_handling.html#overflow_error">overflow_error</a> is returned, with &#949; &#8203;
denoting
numeric_limits&lt;T&gt;::epsilon().
</p>
<p>
The return type of this function is computed using the <a class="link" href="../../main_overview/result_type.html" title="Calculation of the Type of the Result"><span class="emphasis"><em>result
type calculation rules</em></span></a>: the return type is <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">double</span></code> when T is an integer type, and T
otherwise.

<a name="id1155216"></a>
<a class="link" href="atanh.html#math_toolkit.special.inv_hyper.atanh.accuracy">Accuracy</a>
</h5>
<p>
Generally accuracy is to within 1 or 2 epsilon across all supported platforms.

<a class="link" href="atanh.html#math_toolkit.special.inv_hyper.atanh.testing">Testing</a>
</h5>
<p>
This function is tested using a combination of random test values designed
to give full function coverage computed at high precision using the "naive"
formula:
</p>
<p>
<span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/atanh1.png"></span>
</p>
<p>
along with a selection of sanity check values computed using functions.wolfram.com
to at least 50 decimal digits.

<a name="id1155277"></a>
<a class="link" href="atanh.html#math_toolkit.special.inv_hyper.atanh.implementation">Implementation</a>
</h5>
<p>
For sufficiently small x we can use the <a href="http://functions.wolfram.com/ElementaryFunctions/ArcTanh/06/01/03/01/" target="_top">approximation</a>:
</p>
<p>
<span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/atanh2.png"></span>
</p>
<p>
Otherwise the <a href="http://functions.wolfram.com/ElementaryFunctions/ArcTanh/02/" target="_top">primary
definition</a>:
</p>
<p>
<span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/atanh1.png"></span>
</p>
<p>
or it's equivalent form:
</p>
<p>
<span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/atanh3.png"></span>
</p>
<p>
is used.
