Computes the e (Euler's number, 2.7182818) raised to the given power arg, minus 1. This function is more accurate than the expression exp(arg)-1 if arg is close to zero.

[edit] Parameters

arg - floating point value

[edit] Return value

earg
-1

If the result is too large for the underlying type, range error occurs and HUGE_VAL is returned.
