math.Tanh()

The Tanh() function is an inbuilt function of the math package which is used to get the hyperbolic tangent of the given value.

It accepts a parameter (x) and returns the hyperbolic tangent of x.

Syntax:

func Tanh(x float64) float64

Parameter(s):

• x : The value whose hyperbolic tangent is to be found.

Return Value:

The return type of Tanh() function is a float64, it returns the hyperbolic tangent of the given value.

Special cases:

• Tanh(±0) = ±0
  If the parameter is ±0, the function returns the same value (±0).
• Tanh(±Inf) = ±1
  If the parameter is ±Inf, the function returns ±1.
• Tanh(NaN) = NaN
  If the parameter is NaN, the function returns the same value (NaN).

Example 1:

// Golang program to demonstrate the
// example of math.Tanh() Function

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"math"
)

func main() {
	fmt.Println(math.Tanh(1))
	fmt.Println(math.Tanh(0.23))
	fmt.Println(math.Tanh(-1))
	fmt.Println(math.Tanh(-0.23))
	fmt.Println(math.Tanh(-1.23))
	fmt.Println(math.Tanh(1.23))
	fmt.Println(math.Tanh(math.Pi))
	fmt.Println(math.Tanh(0))
	fmt.Println(math.Tanh(math.Inf(1)))
	fmt.Println(math.Tanh(math.Inf(-1)))
	fmt.Println(math.Tanh(math.NaN()))
}

Output:

0.7615941559557649
0.22602835227867096
-0.7615941559557649

Example 2:

// Golang program to demonstrate the
// example of math.Tanh() Function

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"math"
)

func main() {
	var x float64
	var TanhX float64

	x = 0
	TanhX = math.Tanh(x)
	fmt.Printf("Hyperbolic tangent of %.2f is %.2f\n", x, TanhX)

	x = 0.23
	TanhX = math.Tanh(x)
	fmt.Printf("Hyperbolic tangent of %.2f is %.2f\n", x, TanhX)

	x = 1
	TanhX = math.Tanh(x)
	fmt.Printf("Hyperbolic tangent of %.2f is %.2f\n", x, TanhX)

	x = -0.23
	TanhX = math.Tanh(x)
	fmt.Printf("Hyperbolic tangent of %.2f is %.2f\n", x, TanhX)

	x = -2
	TanhX = math.Tanh(x)
	fmt.Printf("Hyperbolic tangent of %.2f is %.2f\n", x, TanhX)

	x = math.Pi
	TanhX = math.Tanh(x)
	fmt.Printf("Hyperbolic tangent of %.2f is %.2f\n", x, TanhX)
}

Output:

Hyperbolic tangent of 0.00 is 0.00
Hyperbolic tangent of 0.23 is 0.23
Hyperbolic tangent of 1.00 is 0.76
Hyperbolic tangent of -0.23 is -0.23
Hyperbolic tangent of -2.00 is -0.96
Hyperbolic tangent of 3.14 is 1.00
