Math.atanh()

The Math.atanh() function returns the inverse hyperbolic tangent of a number.

Syntax

Math.atanh(x)

Parameters

  • x
    • : A number between -1 and 1, inclusive.

Return value

The inverse hyperbolic tangent of x. If x is 1, returns Infinity. If x is -1, returns -Infinity. If x is less than -1 or greater than 1, returns NaN.

Description

Because atanh() is a static method of Math, you always use it as Math.atanh(), rather than as a method of a Math object you created (Math is not a constructor).
