arg.long double, (3) (acosl) is called. Otherwise, if the argument has integer type or the type double, (2) (acos) is called. Otherwise, (1) (acosf) is called. If the argument is complex, then the macro invokes the corresponding complex function (cacosf, cacos, cacosl).| The functions (4-6) are declared if and only if the implementation predefines | (since C23) |
| arg | - | floating-point value |
If no errors occur, the arc cosine of arg (arccos(arg)) in the range [0 ; π], is returned.
If a domain error occurs, an implementation-defined value is returned (NaN where supported).
If a range error occurs due to underflow, the correct result (after rounding) is returned.
Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling.
Domain error occurs if arg is outside the range [-1.0; 1.0].
If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559):
+0 is returned; #include <errno.h>
