asecd

asecd(x)

Compute the inverse secant of x, where the output is in degrees

Examples

In the Julia programming language, the function asecd(x) computes the inverse secant of x in degrees.

julia> asecd(1)
0.0

julia> asecd(-1)
180.0

julia> asecd(sqrt(2))
45.0

Here are some examples of how to use the asecd function:

  1. Compute the inverse secant of 1:

    julia> asecd(1)
    0.0

    The output is 0.0 degrees since the secant of 0 degrees is 1.

  2. Compute the inverse secant of -1:

    julia> asecd(-1)
    180.0

    The output is 180.0 degrees since the secant of 180 degrees is -1.

  3. Compute the inverse secant of √2:
    julia> asecd(sqrt(2))
    45.0

    The output is 45.0 degrees since the secant of 45 degrees is √2.

Common mistake example:

julia> asecd(2)
ERROR: DomainError with -2.0:
asin or acos: argument out of domain

In this example, the input 2 is out of the domain of the inverse secant function, which only accepts values between -1 and 1 inclusive. Make sure to provide valid input within the specified range to avoid such errors.
