EXP Exponent<br />

The EXP comm<strong>and</strong> first divides the source by the scaling factor, then uses the quotient as an<br />

exponent of 10:<br />

10source/scaling factor is placed into the destination.<br />

The EXP comm<strong>and</strong> can be used to evaluate a natural exponential function by using 2.30259<br />

as the scaling factor. Because EXP <strong>and</strong> LOG are inverse functions, the EXP comm<strong>and</strong> has<br />

a scaling factor that may be used to “undo” the scaling factor of the LOG comm<strong>and</strong>. (See<br />

example 2.)<br />

When the source is longer than the destination, the source is truncated to fit. When the source<br />

is shorter than the destination, the last element is repeated to fill the destination.<br />

See “LOG” for more information on the scaling factor.<br />
