A series.
gexp(100, 0.1, 2, 5)
creates an exponential series shifted 5 x-units along the x-axis and compressed by a factor of 2. The first half of this series is equivalent to taking every second point from a gexp(100, 0.1) series.
The formula used to generate each point, n, in the series is as follows:
y[n] = EXP(spacing • factor • (n-1) + offset)
