## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var exp2 = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/exp2' );
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### exp2( x )
|
||
|
|
||
|
Evaluates the base `2` [exponential function][exponential-function].
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var v = exp2( 3.0 );
|
||
|
// returns 8.0
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = exp2( -9.0 );
|
||
|
// returns ~0.002
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = exp2( 0.0 );
|
||
|
// returns 1.0
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = exp2( NaN );
|
||
|
// returns NaN
|
