About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

Arcvercosine

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status

Compute the inverse versed cosine.

The inverse versed cosine is defined as

Inverse versed cosine.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-base-special-avercos

Usage

var avercos = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-avercos' );

avercos( x )

Computes the inverse versed cosine.

var v = avercos( 0.0 );
// returns 0.0

v = avercos( -3.141592653589793/2.0 );
// returns ~2.1783

v = avercos( -3.141592653589793/6.0 );
// returns ~1.0742

If x < -2, x > 0, or x is NaN, the function returns NaN.

var v = avercos( 1.0 );
// returns NaN

v = avercos( -3.14 );
// returns NaN

v = avercos( NaN );
// returns NaN

Examples

var linspace = require( '@stdlib/array-base-linspace' );
var avercos = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-avercos' );

var x = linspace( -2.0, 0.0, 100 );

var i;
for ( i = 0; i < x.length; i++ ) {
    console.log( avercos( x[ i ] ) );
}
