SYNOPSIS

#include <math.h>
double exp(double x);
double log(double x);
double log10(double x);
double pow(double x,double y );

DESCRIPTION

The exp() function returns the value of e (the base of natural logarithms) raised to the power of x.

The log() function returns the natural logarithm of x.

The log10() function returns the base-10 logarithm of x.

The pow() function returns the value of x raised to the power of y.

ERRORS

The log() function can return the following errors:
EDOM
The argument x is negative.
ERANGE
The argument x is zero. The log of zero is not defined.

The pow() function can return the following error:
