31 | The exponential funtion is defined, for all objects for which this makes | |
32 | sense, as the power series <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../equations/special_functions_blurb1.svg"></span>, | |
33 | with <span class="emphasis"><em><code class="literal">n! = 1x2x3x4x5...xn</code></em></span> (and <span class="emphasis"><em><code class="literal">0! | |
34 | = 1</code></em></span> by definition) being the factorial of <span class="emphasis"><em><code class="literal">n</code></em></span>. | |
35 | In particular, the exponential function is well defined for real numbers, | |
36 | complex number, quaternions, octonions, and matrices of complex numbers, | |
37 | among others. | |

79 | The hyperbolic sine is one to one on the set of real numbers, with range | |
80 | the full set of reals, while the hyperbolic tangent is also one to one on | |
81 | the set of real numbers but with range <code class="literal">[0;+∞[</code>, and therefore | |
82 | both have inverses. The hyperbolic cosine is one to one from <code class="literal">]-∞;+1[</code> | |
83 | onto <code class="literal">]-∞;-1[</code> (and from <code class="literal">]+1;+∞[</code> onto | |
84 | <code class="literal">]-∞;-1[</code>); the inverse function we use here is defined on | |
85 | <code class="literal">]-∞;-1[</code> with range <code class="literal">]-∞;+1[</code>. | |
86 | </p> | |
87 | <p> | |
88 | The inverse of the hyperbolic tangent is called the Argument hyperbolic tangent, | |
89 | and can be computed as <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../equations/special_functions_blurb15.svg"></span>. | |

92 | The inverse of the hyperbolic sine is called the Argument hyperbolic sine, | |
