User Functions

sl02ggp (27)
Finding difficulty creating a user function program:


Given: tanh (x) = 1-2e^(-2x) + 2e^(-4x) - 2e^(-6x) + 2e^(-8x) -2e^(-10x) + ...
cos(x) = 1-x^(2)/(2!) + x^(4)/(4!) - x^(6)/(6!) + x^(8)/(8!) +...

Trying to write two functions as follows:
tanh(ax) where a and x are passed to the function and
cos (ax) where a and x are passed to the function.

The functions must give answers that are accurate at least to six
significant digits.

With this in mind, I'm trying to write a program that tests the functions, by
computing F= 5tanh(ax) +4cos(ax) where 0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 2*pi
with the values of a and x entered by the user.

*I would probably check the answers with a calculator.

Check the functions with this data:
a

can anyone help me with writing this code:
Trying to write a larger program incorporating each of the above programs as functions. Also using each to generate a result and then check the result with another new function which uses the actual functions provided by the math..h header (for which we use this in C++ #include <cmath> )

Also like I said before:

I'm trying to write a program that tests the functions, by
computing F= 5tanh(ax) +4cos(ax) where 0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 2*pi
with the values of a and x entered by the user.
