`asin`

Computes the principal arcsine in radians.

Known real inputs are reduced to exact multiples of pi. Numeric inputs outside the real interval [-1,1] can produce complex principal values.

Examples

These examples use Nerdamer Notation.

Evaluate the origin.

asin(0)
// → 0

Use an exact inverse-trig value.

asin(1/2)
// → (1/6)*pi

The same operation is available through the interfaces below.

Use this form inside input passed to nerdamer(...).

asin(arg1)

Call the operation through the default nerdamer import.
