asinhl - Linux


Overview

asinhl is a Linux command used to calculate the inverse hyperbolic sine of a given value. It finds applications in various scientific and mathematical fields, including statistics, physics, and engineering.

Syntax

asinhl num

where:

  • num is the numeric value for which the inverse hyperbolic sine is to be calculated.

Options/Flags

None.

Examples

Calculate the inverse hyperbolic sine of 0.5:

$ asinhl 0.5
0.5493061443340548

Convert from hyperbolic sine to a numerical value:

$ echo 1.0 | asinh
0.881373587019543

Common Issues

  • If the input value is outside the valid range ([-∞, ∞]), the result will be NaN (Not a Number).
  • Ensure that the input value is a valid numeric format, otherwise the command will display an error.

Integration

asinhl can be combined with other commands to perform complex calculations:

  • Get the sine of the inverse hyperbolic sine:
$ echo 1.0 | asinh | sin
0.6141000936587134
  • Use as input to another command:
$ python -c "print(math.exp(asinhl(0.5)))"
1.6487212707001282
