Parameters

a

Vector or scalar of which to determine the hyperbolic cosine.

Description

Returns the hyperbolic cosine of a.

For vectors, the returned vector contains the hyperbolic cosine of each element of the input vector.

Reference Implementation

cosh for a scalar float could be implemented like this.

float cosh(float x)
{
  return 0.5 * (exp(x)+exp(-x));
}

Profile Support

cosh is supported in all profiles except fp20.
