GOAL:
How to Call UNIX libm Function: Cosh (Hyperbolic Cosine)
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.x
FIX:
The following sample code shows how to call the UNIX LIBM trigonometric function called Cosh which resides in the UNIX shared library /usr/lib/libm.1, or /usr/lib/libm.so. This function returns the hyperbolic cosine of a number in radians.
The sample code:
DEFINE VARIABLE decResult AS DECIMAL NO-UNDO.
PROCEDURE cosh EXTERNAL "/usr/lib/libm.1" CDECL:
DEFINE INPUT PARAMETER dblValue AS DOUBLE NO-UNDO.
DEFINE RETURN PARAMETER dblResult AS DOUBLE NO-UNDO.
END PROCEDURE.
RUN cosh (INPUT 0.655, OUTPUT decResult).
MESSAGE "The Hyperbolic Cosine of 0.655 is " decResult
