Returns e raised to the specified power.

public:
 static double Exp(double d);

public static double Exp (double d);

static member Exp : double -> double

Public Shared Function Exp (d As Double) As Double

Parameters

d: Double

A number specifying a power.

Returns

Double

The number e raised to the power d. If d equals NaN or PositiveInfinity, that value is returned. If d equals NegativeInfinity, 0 is returned.

Examples

The following example uses Exp to evaluate certain exponential and logarithmic identities for selected values.

// Example for the Math::Exp( double ) method.
using namespace System;

// Evaluate logarithmic/exponential identity with a given argument.
void UseLnExp( double arg )
{
   
   // Evaluate e ^ ln(X) == ln(e ^ X) == X.
   Console::WriteLine( "\n      Math::Exp(Math::Log({0})) == {1:E16}\n"
   "      Math::Log(Math::Exp({0})) == {2:E16}", arg, Math::Exp( Math::Log( arg ) ), Math::Log( Math::Exp( arg ) ) );
}


// Evaluate exponential identities that are functions of two arguments.
void UseTwoArgs( double argX, double argY )
{
   
   // Evaluate (e ^ X) * (e ^ Y) == e ^ (X + Y).
   Console::WriteLine( "\nMath::Exp({0}) * Math::Exp({1}) == {2:E16}"
   "\n           Math::Exp({0} + {1}) == {3:E16}", argX, argY, Math::Exp( argX ) * Math::Exp( argY ), Math::Exp( argX + argY ) );

Remarks

e is a mathematical constant whose value is approximately 2.71828.

Use the Pow method to calculate powers of other bases.

Exp is the inverse of Log.

This method calls into the underlying C runtime, and the exact result or valid input range may differ between different operating systems or architectures.
