Returns e
raised to the power specified by a complex number.
public:
static System::Numerics::Complex Exp(System::Numerics::Complex value);
public static System.Numerics.Complex Exp (System.Numerics.Complex value);
static member Exp : System.Numerics.Complex -> System.Numerics.Complex
Public Shared Function Exp (value As Complex) As Complex
Parameters
- value
- Complex
A complex number that specifies a power.
Returns
The number e
raised to the power value
.
Examples
The following example illustrates the Exp method. It shows that, with some allowance for the lack of precision of the Double data type, passing the value returned by the Log method to the Exp method returns the original Complex value.

public class Example
{
public static void Main()
{
Complex[] values = { new Complex(1.53, 9.26),
new Complex(2.53, -8.12),
new Complex(-2.81, 5.32),
new Complex(-1.09, -3.43),
new Complex(Double.MinValue/2, Double.MinValue/2) };
foreach (Complex value in values)
Console.WriteLine("Exp(Log({0}) = {1}", value,
Complex.Exp(Complex.Log(value)));
}
}
// The example displays the following output:
// Exp(Log((1.53, 9.26)) = (1.53, 9.26)
// Exp(Log((2.53, -8.12)) = (2.53, -8.12)
// Exp(Log((-2.81, 5.32)) = (-2.81, 5.32)
// Exp(Log((-1.09, -3.43)) = (-1.09, -3.43)
// Exp(Log((-8.98846567431158E+307, -8.98846567431158E+307)) = (-8.98846567431161E+307, -8.98846567431161E+307)

Remarks
Use the Pow method to calculate the powers of other bases.
The Exp method for complex numbers corresponds to the Math.Exp method for real numbers. Exp is the inverse of Log.
