ATANH Inverse Hyperbolic Tangent Function

Section: Mathematical Functions

# Usage

Computes the inverse hyperbolic tangent of its argument. The general syntax for its use is

      y = atanh(x)

where `x` is an `n`-dimensional array of numerical type.

# Internals

The `atanh` function is computed from the formula

where the `log` (and square root) is taken in its most general sense.

# Examples

Here is a simple plot of the inverse hyperbolic tangent function

    --> x = -0.99:.01:0.99;
    --> plot(x,atanh(x)); grid('on');
