The tanhֿ¹( Command

We're glad you came by, but you might find what you're looking for elsewhere.

TI-Basic Developer is not the site it once was. While its information on commands and other calculator features remains almost second-to-none, its forum, archives, and even hosting service, Wikidot, have been decaying for years. The calculator community would love to see what you're working on, or help you in your next coding adventure, but TI-Basic Developer is no longer the place to do it.

Instead, you should head over to Cemetech (primarily American) or TI-Planet (primarily international). Both are active, well-established forums with their own archives, chatrooms, reference material, and abundant coding tools and resources. We'll see you there, we hope.

The tanhֿ¹( command calculates the inverse hyperbolic tangent of a value. tanhֿ¹(x) is the number y such that x = tanh(y).

tanhֿ¹(x), although it can be defined for all real and complex numbers, is real-valued only for x in the open interval (-1,1). Since Z80 calculators have their hyperbolic functions and inverses restricted to real values, ERR:DOMAIN is thrown when x is outside the interval (-1,1).

The tanhֿ¹( command also works for lists.

tanhֿ¹(0)
    0
tanhֿ¹({-.5,.5})
    {-.5493061443 .5493061443}

Error Conditions

  • ERR:DOMAIN when taking the inverse tanh of a number not between -1 and 1.
