This is the hyperbolic sine. As to quote from wikipedia
"n mathematics, the hyperbolic functions are analogs of the ordinary trigonometric, or circular, functions. The basic hyperbolic functions are the hyperbolic sine "sinh", and the hyperbolic cosine "cosh", from which are derived the hyperbolic tangent "tanh", etc., in analogy to the derived trigonometric functions. The inverse functions are the inverse hyperbolic sine "arsinh" (also called "arсsinh" or "asinh") and so on."
The formula for Sinh(x) is (e^x-e^-x)/2
Hyperbolic sine is used in advanced math courses such as calculus.

hyperbolic sine, I think
Someone else might give a more detailed answer.

sinh(x) = [e^x - e^(-x)] / 2
