Compute arc sine
Returns the principal value of the arc sine of x, expressed in radians.

In trigonometrics, arc sine is the inverse operation of sine .

Header <tgmath.h> provides a type-generic macro version of this function.
This function is overloaded in <valarray> (see valarray asin).
Additional overloads are provided in this header (<cmath> ) for the integral types: These overloads effectively cast x to a double before calculations (defined for T being any integral type ).

This function is also overloaded in <complex> and <valarray> (see complex asin and valarray asin).

Parameters

x
Value whose arc sine is computed, in the interval [-1,+1].
If the argument is out of this interval, a domain error occurs.

Return Value

Principal arc sine of x, in the interval [-pi/2,+pi/2] radians.
One radian is equivalent to 180/PI degrees.

If a domain error occurs, the global variable errno is set to EDOM .
If a domain error occurs:
- And math_errhandling has MATH_ERRNO set: the global variable errno is set to EDOM .
- And math_errhandling has MATH_ERREXCEPT set: FE_INVALID is raised.

/* asin example */
#include <stdio.h> /* printf */
#include <math.h> /* asin */
#define PI 3.14159265
int main ()
{
 double param, result;
 param = 0.5;
 result = asin (param) * 180.0 / PI;
 printf ("The arc sine of %f is %f degrees\n", param, result);
 return 0;
}

Output:

The arc sine of 0.500000 is 30.000000 degrees.
