1-3) Computes the principal value of the arc cosine of
arg.4) Type-generic macro: If the argument has type long double,
acosl is called. Otherwise, if the argument has integer type or the type double, acos is called. Otherwise, acosf is called. If the argument is complex, then the macro invokes the corresponding complex function (cacosf, cacos, cacosl)Contents |
[edit] Parameters
| arg | - | floating point value |
[edit] Return value
If no errors occur, the arc cosine of arg (arccos(arg)) in the range [0 ; π], is returned.
If a domain error occurs, an implementation-defined value is returned (NaN where supported)
If a range error occurs due to underflow, the correct result (after rounding) is returned.
[edit] Error handling
Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling
Domain error occurs if arg is outside the range [-1.0; 1.0]
If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559),
- If the argument is +1, the value
+0is returned. - If |arg| > 1, a domain error occurs and NaN is returned.
- if the argument is NaN, NaN is returned
[edit] Example
Run this code
#include <stdio.h> #include <math.h> #include <errno.h> #include <fenv.h> #include <string.h> #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON int main(void) { printf("acos(-1) = %f\n", acos(-1)); printf("acos(0.0) = %f 2*acos(0.0) = %f\n", acos(0), 2*acos(0)); printf("acos(0.5) = %f 3*acos(0.5) = %f\n", acos(0), 3*acos(0)); printf("acos(1) = %f\n", acos(1)); // error handling errno = 0; feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT); printf("acos(1.1) = %f\n", acos(1.1)); if(errno == EDOM) perror(" errno == EDOM"); if(fetestexcept(FE_INVALID)) puts(" FE_INVALID raised"); } }
Possible output:
acos(+0.0) = 1.570796 acos(-0.0) = 1.570796 acos(1.0) = 0.0 acos(NAN) = nan acos(1.1) = nan Numerical argument out of domain current exceptions raised: FE_INVALID
