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 cosine of a value.
   *
   * For matrices, the function is evaluated element wise.
   *
   * Syntax:
   *
   *    math.acos(x)
   *
   * Examples:
   *
   *    math.acos(0.5)           // returns number 1.0471975511965979
   *    math.acos(math.cos(1.5)) // returns number 1.5
   *
   *    math.acos(2)             // returns Complex 0 + 1.3169578969248166 i
   *
   * See also:
   *
   *    cos, atan, asin

   * @return {number | BigNumber | Complex | Array | Matrix} The arc cosine of x
