Exponential function

In mathematics, the exponential function is the unique real function which maps zero to one and has a derivative everywhere equal to its value. It is denoted ⁠ e x {\displaystyle e^{x}} ⁠ or ⁠ exp ⁡ x {\displaystyle \exp x} ⁠; the latter is preferred when the argument ⁠ x {\displaystyle x} ⁠ is a complicated expression. It is called exponential because…
