acos, acosf, acosl - arc cosine function

#include <math.h>

double acos(double x);
float acosf(float x);
long double acosl(long double x);

Link with -lm.

Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

These functions calculate the arc cosine of x; that is the value whose cosine is x.

On success, these functions return the arc cosine of x in radians; the return value is in the range [0, pi].

If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned.

If x is +1, +0 is returned.

If x is positive infinity or negative infinity, a domain error occurs, and a NaN is returned.

If x is outside the range [-1, 1], a domain error occurs, and a NaN is returned.
