18 /* ASINH(X)
19  * RETURN THE INVERSE HYPERBOLIC SINE OF X
20  * DOUBLE PRECISION (VAX D format 56 bits, IEEE DOUBLE 53 BITS)
21  * CODED IN C BY K.C. NG, 2/16/85;
22  * REVISED BY K.C. NG on 3/7/85, 3/24/85, 4/16/85.
23  *
24  * Required system supported functions :
25  *	copysign(x,y)
26  *	sqrt(x)
27  *
28  * Required kernel function:
29  *	log1p(x) 		...return log(1+x)
30  *
31  * Method :
32  *	Based on
33  *		asinh(x) = sign(x) * log [ |x| + sqrt(x*x+1) ]
34  *	we have
35  *	asinh(x) := x  if  1+x*x=1,
36  *		 := sign(x)*(log1p(x)+ln2))	 if sqrt(1+x*x)=x, else
37  *		 := sign(x)*log1p(|x| + |x|/(1/|x| + sqrt(1+(1/|x|)^2)) )
38  *
39  * Accuracy:
40  *	asinh(x) returns the exact inverse hyperbolic sine of x nearly rounded.
41  *	In a test run with 52,000 random arguments on a VAX, the maximum
42  *	observed error was 1.58 ulps (units in the last place).
43  *
44  * Constants:
45  * The hexadecimal values are the intended ones for the following constants.
46  * The decimal values may be used, provided that the compiler will convert
47  * from decimal to binary accurately enough to produce the hexadecimal values
48  * shown.
