Subject: Math::Trig(3pm) man page feedback
I'm passing on documentation feedback that I received via a website I help maintain. I make no representation about the correctness of the statements herein. :-) An anonymous developer had this to say: Inverses of hyperbolic functions are not called "arcus" but "area" - e.g. "area hyperbolic sine". Hence we have "arcsin" but "arsinh" (no "c"). This mistake is common in the US for some reason.
I cannot find any references in the current documentation of the module where it would talk of "arcsinh" or "arcus sinh", all the references are to "asinh".
Oops, never mind, found the erroneous spot now.
FIxed now in latest releases, available from CPAN.
