Syntax

Description

example

Y = acsc(X) returns the Inverse Cosecant (csc-1) of the elements of X. The acsc function operates element-wise on arrays. For real elements of X in intervals [-Inf,-1] and [1,Inf], acsc returns real values in the interval [-pi/2,pi/2]. For real values of X in the interval [-1,1] and for complex values of X, acsc returns complex values. All angles are in radians.

Open Script

Find the inverse cosecant of the elements of vector x. The acsc function acts on x element-wise.

x = [0.5i 1+3i -2.2+i];
Y = acsc(x)

Y =

   0.0000 - 1.4436i   0.0959 - 0.2970i  -0.3795 - 0.1833i
Open Script

Plot the inverse cosecant function over the intervals $-10\le x <-1$ and $1 < x \le 10$.

x1 = -10:0.01:-1.01;
x2 = 1.01:0.01:10;
plot(x1,acsc(x1),'b')
hold on
plot(x2,acsc(x2),'b')
grid on
