Returns the inverse sine (arc sine) of a Complex, with branch cuts outside the interval [-1,1] along the real axis.

Namespace: Imsl.Math
Assembly: ImslCS (in ImslCS.dll) Version: 6.5.0.0

Syntax

C#
public static Complex Asin(
	Complex z
)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Shared Function Asin ( _
	z As Complex _
) As Complex
Visual C++
public:
static Complex Asin(
	Complex z
)

Parameters

z
Type: Imsl.Math..::.Complex
A Complex object.

Return Value

A newly constructed Complex initialized to the inverse (arc) sine of the argument. The real part of the result is in the interval [-\pi/2,+\pi/2].

Remarks

The value of Asin is defined in terms of the function Asinh, by \asin(z) = -i \asinh(iz).
