Math.js is an extensive math library for JavaScript and Node.js. It features a flexible expression parser with support for symbolic computation, comes with a large set of built-in functions and constants, and offers an integrated solution to work with dif

   * Calculate the inverse sine of a value.
   *
   * For matrices, the function is evaluated element wise.

   * Syntax:
   *
   *    math.asin(x)

   * Examples:
   *
   *    math.asin(0.5)           // returns number 0.5235987755982989
   *    math.asin(math.sin(1.5)) // returns number ~1.5
   *
   *    math.asin(2)             // returns Complex 1.5707963267948966 -1.3169578969248166 i
