+       \begin{align} \operatorname{tanh}(x) &= \frac{\operatorname{sinh}(x)}{\operatorname{cosh}(x)} \\ &= \frac{e^x - e^{-x}}{e^x + e^{-x}} \end{align}

+    .. warning::
+       For historical reasons stemming from the C standard, array libraries may not return the expected result when ``a`` is ``+0`` and ``b`` is either ``+infinity`` or ``NaN``. The result should be ``+0 + NaN j`` in both cases; however, for libraries compiled against older C versions, the result may be ``NaN + NaN j``.
+
+       Array libraries are not required to patch these older C versions, and, thus, users are advised that results may vary across array library implementations for these special cases.
+
+    .. note::
+       The hyperbolic tangent is an analytical function on the complex plane and has no branch cuts. The function is periodic, with period :math:`\pi j`, with respect to the imaginary component and has first order poles along the imaginary line at coordinates :math:`(0, \pi (\frac{1}{2} + n))`. However, IEEE 754 binary floating-point representation cannot represent :math:`\pi / 2` exactly, and, thus, no argument value is possible such that a pole error occurs.
