+NAME
+    exp	- exponential function
+
+SYNOPSIS
+    exp(x [,eps])
+
+TYPES
+    x		real or complex
+    eps		nonzero real, defaults to epsilon()
+
+    return	real or complex
+
+DESCRIPTION
+    Approximate the exponential function of x by a multiple of epsilon,
+    the error having absolute value less than 0.75 * eps.
+    If n is a positive integer, exp(x, 10^-n) will usually be
+    correct to the n-th decimal place, which, for large positive x
+    will give many significant figures.
+
