Create the definition of an arcsinh transformation function (base specified by user) to be applied on a data set

Description

Create the definition of the arcsinh Transformation that will be applied on some parameter via the transform method. The definition of this function is currently x<-asinh(a+b*x)+c). The transformation would normally be used to convert to a linear valued parameter to the natural logarithm scale. By default a and b are both equal to 1 and c to 0.

Usage

arcsinhTransform(transformationId="defaultArcsinhTransform", a=1, b=1, c=0)

Arguments

transformationId	character string to identify the transformation
a	positive double that corresponds to a shift about 0.
b	positive double that corresponds to a scale factor.
c	positive double

Value

Returns an object of class transform.
