VB.NET Tanh Example – Code Sample Syntax
VB.NET Tanh Example – Code Sample Syntax
Purpose: – Illustrates using VB.NET Tanh Code Example.
Purpose:
converts an angle measured in radians to a hyperbolic tangent. (you can convert
the radians to degrees by multiplying them by Math.PI/180)
Syntax:
Tanh(doublenumber)
Tanh(doublenumber)
Parameters | Description | doublenumber | double percision floating point number representing an angle measured in radians. |
---|
Result Data Type | Description | double | represents the hyperbolic tangent of the angle specified in parameter1. If parameter1 is equal to NegativeInfinity, -1 is returned. If parameter1 is NaN, NaN (Not a Number) is returned. If parameter1 is PositiveInfinity, +1 is returned. |

Notes:
- Console Application is used to simplify things, but Windows Forms or Web Forms could also be used
- You can build a library of syntax examples by using same project over and over and just commenting out what you do not want to execute in Module1.vb
