NAME

exp10, exp10f, exp10l - base-10 exponential function  

SYNOPSIS

#define _GNU_SOURCE         /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <math.h>

double exp10(double x);
float exp10f(float x);
long double exp10l(long double x);

Link with -lm.  

DESCRIPTION

These functions return the value of 10 raised to the power of x.  

RETURN VALUE

On success, these functions return the base-10 exponential value of x.

For various special cases, including the handling of infinity and NaN, as well as overflows and underflows, see exp(3).  

ERRORS

See math_error(7) for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred when calling these functions.

For a discussion of the errors that can occur for these functions, see exp(3).  

VERSIONS

These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
