-- On output, the value of tanh(X) (the hyperbolic tangent of X) is returned.

-- The definition of tanh(Y) is sinh(Y)/cosh(Y), which is also equivalent
-- to the following three formulas.
--      1.  ( exp(Y) - exp(-Y) ) / ( exp(Y) + exp(-Y) )
--      2.  ( 1 - ( 2 / ( exp(2*Y) + 1 ) ) )
--      3.  ( exp(2*Y) - 1 ) / ( exp(2*Y) + 1 ).
-- but computationally, some formulas are better on some ranges.
