.SH DESCRIPTION
These functions return the value of e (the base of natural
logarithms) raised to the power of
.SH RETURN VALUE
On success, these functions return the exponential value of
.IR x .
-
+.PP
If
.I x
is a NaN,
a NaN is returned.
-
+.PP
If
.I x
is positive infinity,
positive infinity is returned.
-
+.PP
If
.I x
is negative infinity,
+0 is returned.
-
+.PP
If the result underflows,
a range error occurs,
and zero is returned.
-
+.PP
If the result overflows,
a range error occurs,
and the functions return
.BR math_error (7)
for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred
when calling these functions.
-
+.PP
The following errors can occur:
.TP
Range error, overflow
