EXP

Purpose:

Raises the constant e (2.71828...) to the specified power.

Syntax:

EXP(val)

val

-

A scalar, series or table.

Returns:

A scalar, series, or table.

Example:

exp(1)

 

returns the scalar 2.71828182.

Example:

real(exp(pi*i) + 1)

 

returns 0.

Example:

exp(W2)

 

creates a new series from the contents of Window 2 and places the result in the current Window. The value of each point in the new series will be e raised to the value of the corresponding point in Window 2.

Remarks:

See EXPM1 to compute exp(x) - 1 for small x.

 

See EXPINT to compute the generalized exponential integral.

 

See EXPFIT to fit an exponential to a series.

 

See EXPM to compute the matrix exponential.
