AHT
is
a
numeric
function
which returns arc-hyperbolic
tangent
of the numeric
argument.
1 AHT
numeric expression
AHS is a numeric
function
which
returns
arc-hyperbolic sine of the
numeric
argument.
AHS
6
is
2.491779853.
1
AHS
numeric expression
AHC
is
a
numeric
function
which
returns
arc-hyperbolic
cosine of the numeric
argu-
ment. AHC
5
is
2.29243167.
1 AHC
numeric expression
ACS
is a numeric function which returns the
arc
cosine of the numeric argument. The
arc cosine is the
angle whose cosine
ts
equal
to
the
expression.
The value
returned
depends
on
whether the
COMPUTER
is
in
decimal
degree,
radian,
or
grad
mode for
angles. ACS.5 is
60
in
the decimal degree mode.
1 ACS
numeric expression
ABS
is a
numeric function
which
returns the absolute value
of
the numeric
argument.
The
absolute
value is
the
value of a number without regard to its
sign.
ABS

Numeric
functions are
a group of
mathematical
operations
which
take a single
numeric
value and return a
numeric value.
They include
trigonometric
functions,
logarithmic
functions,
and
functions
which
operate on the integer
and
sign parts
of a
number.
Many dialects
of BASIC
requi
r
e
that the argument
to a
function
be
encl
o sed
in
parentheses.
The
COMPUTER
does
not require these parentheses,
except
when
it
is
necessary to
indicate what
part
of
a more
complex
expression
is to be
included
in
the
argument.
LOG 100+100
will
be interpreted
as:
(LOG
100)+100
not
LOG (100+100)
