Exponential

Exponential Function

A function where the variable appears as an exponent (e.g. e^x), modeling rapid growth or decay processes.

Detalhe técnico

Exponential is applied in computing through numerical algorithms that balance precision, performance, and memory. JavaScript uses 64-bit IEEE 754 floating-point for all numbers, providing ~15-17 significant decimal digits. For exact arithmetic (financial, cryptographic), BigInt or fixed-point libraries are required. Browser-based calculators implement exponential using the same floating-point engine, making awareness of precision limitations important for correct results.

Exemplo

```
Logarithm identities:

  log_b(x) = y  means  b^y = x

  log₁₀(1000) = 3   (10³ = 1000)
  log₂(256)   = 8   (2⁸ = 256)
  ln(e)       = 1   (e¹ = e ≈ 2.718)

  log(a × b) = log(a) + log(b)
  log(a / b) = log(a) - log(b)
  log(a^n)   = n × log(a)
