acsch computes the element-wise inverse hyperbolic cosecant of the argument.

## Syntax

    y = acsch(x)

## Arguments

x

  a real or complex array.

y

  a real or complex array.

## Description

Computes the element-wise inverse hyperbolic cosecant of the argument. For real argument with absolute value greater than 1 the result is real.

The following equalities hold: `acsch(z) = -acsch(-z) = asinh(1/z) = csgn(%i+1/z)*asech(-i*z)-%i*%pi/2 = %i*acsc(%i*z)`

## Sample

x=linspace(1,20,200); x=[-x($:-1:1) %nan x]; plot(x,acsch(x))

## Examples

    x=linspace(1,20,200);
    x=[-x($:-1:1) %nan x];
    plot(x,acsch(x))
