    tf.math.atanh(
        x, name=None
    )

Given an input tensor, this function computes inverse hyperbolic tangent
for every element in the tensor. Input range is `[-1,1]` and output range is
`[-inf, inf]`. If input is `-1`, output will be `-inf` and if the
input is `1`, output will be `inf`. Values outside the range will have
`nan` as output.

>     tf.math.atanh(x) ==> [nan -inf -0.54930615 inf  0. 0.54930615 nan nan]
