Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see

_ISOC99_SOURCE ||

These functions return the hyperbolic tangent of
x, which is defined
mathematically as:
tanh(x) = sinh(x) / cosh(x)
On success, these functions return the hyperbolic tangent of
x.
If
x is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
If
x is +0 (-0), +0 (-0) is returned.
If
x is positive infinity (negative infinity), +1 (-1) is returned.
No errors occur.
