+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These functions calculate the inverse hyperbolic tangent of
+.IR x ;
+that is the value whose hyperbolic tangent is
+.IR x .
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On success, these functions return the inverse hyperbolic tangent of
+.IR x .
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is +0 (\-0), +0 (\-0) is returned.
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is +1 or \-1,
+a pole error occurs,
+and the functions return
+.BR HUGE_VAL ,
+.BR HUGE_VALF ,
+or
+.BR HUGE_VALL ,
+respectively, with the mathematically correct sign.
+.P
+If the absolute value of
+.I x
+is greater than 1,
+a domain error occurs,
+and a NaN is returned.
+.\"
+.\" POSIX.1-2001 documents an optional range error for subnormal x;
+.\" glibc 2.8 does not do this.
+.SH ERRORS
+See
+.BR math_error (7)
+for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred
+when calling these functions.
+.P
+The following errors can occur:
+.TP
+Domain error: \fIx\fP less than \-1 or greater than +1
+.I errno
+is set to
+.BR EDOM .
+An invalid floating-point exception
+.RB ( FE_INVALID )
+is raised.
+.TP
+Pole error: \fIx\fP is +1 or \-1
+.I errno
+is set to
+.B ERANGE
+(but see BUGS).
+A divide-by-zero floating-point exception
+.RB ( FE_DIVBYZERO )
+is raised.

+.SH STANDARDS

+.SH HISTORY
+C99, POSIX.1-2001.
+.P
+The variant returning
+.I double
+also conforms to
+SVr4, 4.3BSD.
+.SH BUGS
+In glibc 2.9 and earlier,
+.\" Bug: https://www.sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6759
+.\" This can be seen in sysdeps/ieee754/k_standard.c
+when a pole error occurs,
+.I errno
+is set to
+.B EDOM
+instead of the POSIX-mandated
+.BR ERANGE .
+Since glibc 2.10, glibc does the right thing.
