Defined in header <complex>
template<class T > std::complex<T> asin(conststd::complex<T>& z );		(since C++11)

Computes complex arc sine of a complex value z. Branch cut exists outside the interval [−1, +1] along the real axis.

Parameters

z

-

complex value

Return value

If no errors occur, complex arc sine of z is returned, in the range of a strip unbounded along the imaginary axis and in the interval [−π/2, +π/2] along the real axis.

Errors and special cases are handled as if the operation is implemented by -i * std::asinh(i * z), where i is the imaginary unit.

Notes

Inverse sine (or arc sine) is a multivalued function and requires a branch cut on the complex plane. The branch cut is conventionally placed at the line segments (-∞,-1) and (1,∞) of the real axis.

The mathematical definition of the principal value of arc sine is \(\small \arcsin z = -{\rm i}\ln({\rm i}z+\sqrt{1-z^2})\)arcsin z = -iln(iz + √1-z2
).

For any z, \(\small{ \arcsin(z) = \arccos(-z) - \frac{\pi}{2} }\)asin(z) = acos(-z) -

Example

Run this code

#include <cmath>#include <complex>#include <iostream>   int main(){std::cout<<std::fixed;std::complex<double> z1(-2.0, 0.0);std::cout<<"asin"<< z1 <<" = "<<std::asin(z1)<<'\n';   std::complex<double> z2(-2.0, -0.0);std::cout<<"asin"<< z2 <<" (the other side of the cut) = "<<std::asin(z2)<<'\n';   // for any z, asin(z) = acos(−z) − pi / 2constdouble pi =std::acos(-1);std::complex<double> z3 =std::acos(z2)- pi /2;std::cout<<"sin(acos"<< z2 <<" - pi / 2) = "<<std::sin(z3)<<'\n';}

Output:

asin(-2.000000,0.000000) = (-1.570796,1.316958) asin(-2.000000,-0.000000) (the other side of the cut) = (-1.570796,-1.316958) sin(acos(-2.000000,-0.000000) - pi / 2) = (2.000000,0.000000)
