ASIND — Arcsine function, degrees¶

ASIND(X)¶

ASIND(X) computes the arcsine of its X in degrees (inverse of SIND(X) ).

Parameters: X – The type shall be either REAL and a magnitude that is less than or equal to one - or be COMPLEX.
Returns: The return value is of the same type and kind as X. The real part of the result is in degrees and lies in the range -90 leq Re asin(x) leq 90.

Syntax:

RESULT = ASIND(X)

Example:

program test_asind
  real(8) :: x = 0.866_8
  x = asind(x)
end program test_asind

Specific names:

Name	Argument	Return type	Standard
`ASIND(X)`	`REAL(4) X`	`REAL(4)`	GNU extension
`DASIND(X)`	`REAL(8) X`	`REAL(8)`	GNU extension
