In addition sufficient additional overloads of the `double` versions of the above functions are provided, so that calling the function with any mixture of `float`, `double`, `long double`, or integer arguments is supported, with the return type determined by the result type calculation rules.

For example:

    acoshf(2.0f);  // float version, returns float.
    acosh(2.0f);   // also calls the float version and returns float.
    acosh(2.0);    // double version, returns double.
    acoshl(2.0L);  // long double version, returns a long double.
    acosh(2.0L);   // also calls the long double version.
    acosh(2);      // integer argument is treated as a double, returns double.

##### Quick Reference

More detailed descriptions of these functions are available in the C99 standard.

    typedef unspecified float_t;
    typedef unspecified double_t;

In this implementation `float_t` is the same as type `float`, and `double_t` the same as type `double` unless the preprocessor symbol FLT_EVAL_METHOD is defined, in which case these are set as follows:

FLT_EVAL_METHOD | float_t | double_t
--- | --- | ---
0 | float | double
1 | double | double
2 | long double | long double
