xarray.ufuncs.asinh#
- xarray.ufuncs.asinh = <xarray.ufuncs._unary_ufunc object>#
xarray specific variant of
numpy.asinh()
. Handles xarray objects by dispatching to the appropriate function for the underlying array type.Documentation from numpy:
Inverse hyperbolic sine element-wise.
- Parameters
x (array_like) – Input array.
out (
ndarray
,None
, ortuple
ofndarray
andNone
, optional) – A location into which the result is stored. If provided, it must have a shape that the inputs broadcast to. If not provided or None, a freshly-allocated array is returned. A tuple (possible only as a keyword argument) must have length equal to the number of outputs.where (array_like, optional) – This condition is broadcast over the input. At locations where the condition is True, the out array will be set to the ufunc result. Elsewhere, the out array will retain its original value. Note that if an uninitialized out array is created via the default
out=None
, locations within it where the condition is False will remain uninitialized.**kwargs – For other keyword-only arguments, see the ufunc docs.
- Returns
out (
ndarray
or scalar) – Array of the same shape as x. This is a scalar if x is a scalar.
Notes
arcsinh is a multivalued function: for each x there are infinitely many numbers z such that sinh(z) = x. The convention is to return the z whose imaginary part lies in [-pi/2, pi/2].
For real-valued input data types, arcsinh always returns real output. For each value that cannot be expressed as a real number or infinity, it returns
nan
and sets the invalid floating point error flag.For complex-valued input, arcsinh is a complex analytical function that has branch cuts [1j, infj] and [-1j, -infj] and is continuous from the right on the former and from the left on the latter.
The inverse hyperbolic sine is also known as asinh or
sinh^-1
