JavaScript Math.exp() function

The Math.exp() is an inbuilt function in JavaScript that is used to get the value of e^p, where p is any given number. 
The number e is a mathematical constant having an approximate value equal to 2.718.

• It was discovered by the Swiss mathematician Jacob Bernoulli.
• This number is also called Euler’s number.

Syntax:

Math.exp(p)

Parameter: This function accepts a single parameter p as any number.
Return Value: It returns the value of e^p, where p is any given number as a parameter. 

Example:

Input  : Math.exp(0)
Output : 1

Explanation: Here the value of parameter p is 0, So after putting the value 0 instead of p in e^p then its value becomes 1.  

Input  : Math.exp(2)
Output : 7.38905609893065

Explanation: Here the value of parameter p is 2, So after putting the value 2 instead of p in e^p then its value becomes 7.38905609893065.

Let’s see the JavaScript program: 

Example 1:

Javascript

<script>
  // Here different values is being taken as
  // as parameter of Math.exp() function.
  console.log(Math.exp(0) + "<br>");
  console.log(Math.exp(1) + "<br>");
  console.log(Math.exp(2) + "<br>");
  console.log(Math.exp(-1) + "<br>");
  console.log(Math.exp(-7) + "<br>");
  console.log(Math.exp(10) + "<br>");
  console.log(Math.exp(1.2));
</script>

Output:

1
2.718281828459045
7.38905609893065
0.36787944117144233
0.0009118819655545162
22026.465794806718
3.3201169227365472

Example 2: Here parameter should be a number otherwise it gives an error or NaN i.e, not a number.

Javascript

<script>
// Here alphabet parameter give error.
 console.log(Math.exp(a));
</script>

Output:

Error: a is not defined

Javascript

<script>
  // Here parameter as a string give NaN.
  console.log(Math.exp("gfg"));
</script>

Output:

NaN
