Python math.exp() - Exponential Function
Python math.exp()
math.exp(x) function returns the value of e
raised to the power of x, where e
is the base of natural logarithm.
exp(x) = e^x
Syntax
The syntax to call exp() function is
math.exp(x)
where
Parameter | Required | Description |
---|---|---|
x | Yes | A numeric value. |
Examples
In the following example, we find the exponential power of 2, using exp() function of math module.
Python Program
import math
x = 2
result = math.exp(x)
print('exp(x) :', result)
Output
exp(x) : 7.38905609893065
Now, let us find the exponential power of a negative number.
Python Program
import math
x = -2
result = math.exp(x)
print('exp(x) :', result)
Output
exp(x) : 0.1353352832366127
