om-e

om-e

(arithmetic module) -- returns e to a given power

Syntax

om-e self

Inputs

name data type(s) comments
self a number or tree  

Output

output data type(s) comments
first a number or tree returns e to the self power(s)

Description

Returns e to the self power. If self is a tree, then a tree of identical dimensions is returned, containing e raised to the n for every element n of the tree.

Note

e is a mathematical constant, like � (pi). It is the natural logarithm, the unique function which is its own derivative (the derivative of e x is e x.) If you don’t know what this is, don’t worry about it- you probably won’t need to use it.
