2) In my grapher, artanh(1) does not exist (is undefined, invalid or whatever).
Yet when I plug in artanh(sin(x)^2+cos(x)^2), which should be the same, I get weird splotches.
Is the grapher getting confused, or does there really exist a difference between 1 and sin(x)^2+cos(x)^2 vis-a-vis artanh(x)?
Thanks
