concerns

The Exp function potentiates e (the base of the natural logarithm) with the specified value.

 

Syntax

Description

Required

Value

Double

ByVal

Value to retrieve exp

 

Value must not exceed 709.782712893, otherwise an error will occur.

The constant e is approximately the value of 2.718282.

Notes

The Exp function is the inverse function to the Log function (natural logarithm) and is sometimes called antilogarithm.

Example

Dim Angle As Double, HypSin As Double

# define Angle in radiant

Angle := 1.3

# calc the hyperbolic sine

HypSin := (Exp(Angle) - Exp(-1 * Angle)) / 2
