"""
This script demonstrates the implementation of the tangent hyperbolic or tanh function.
The function takes a vector of K real numbers as input and then (e^x - e^(-x))/(e^x + e^(-x)).
After through tanh, the element of the vector mostly -1 between 1.
Script inspired from its corresponding Wikipedia article

Implements the tanh function
Parameters:
vector: np.array, list, tuple consisting real values
Returns:
tanh (np.array): The input numpy array after applying
tanh.
mathematically (e^x - e^(-x))/(e^x + e^(-x)) can be written as (2/(1+e^(-2x))-1
