Comment (by jauecker):

 '''Chris:'''


 >but I do *not* think we should specify where the branch cut lies.

 And it is 2 - 1 here, as David never fails not to use typos.

 >If I remember correctly, Maple and Mathematica differ on where they do
 branch cuts.  Do we want to favor one over the other?  have two sets of
 arc trig functions?  Maybe NAG uses even different branch cuts...

 But take care: this is precisely Dr Carlisle's exquisite reasoning in
 favour of full specification here (although he omits to tell even me
 if these are functions on the reals or the complexes before worrying
 about whether cuts are the way to describe this).
