ee.Number.tanh

  • The tanh() method computes the hyperbolic tangent of a number.

  • It takes a single numerical input and returns a numerical output.

  • The input value is typically interpreted as being in radians when calculating the hyperbolic tangent.

  • Examples are provided for both JavaScript and Python to demonstrate usage with various inputs, including converting degrees to radians before calculation.

Computes the hyperbolic tangent of the input.
