 *
 *	Exponential function
 *
 *
 *
 * SYNOPSIS:
 *
 * float x, y, expf();
 *
 * y = expf( x );
 *
 *
 *
 * DESCRIPTION:
 *
 * Returns e (2.71828...) raised to the x power.
 *
 * Range reduction is accomplished by separating the argument
 * into an integer k and fraction f such that
 *
 *     x    k  f
 *    e  = 2  e.
 *
 * A polynomial is used to approximate exp(f)
 * in the basic range [-0.5, 0.5].
 *
 *
 * ACCURACY:
 *
 *                      Relative error:
 * arithmetic   domain     # trials      peak         rms
 *    IEEE      +- MAXLOG   100000      1.7e-7      2.8e-8
 *
 *
 * Error amplification in the exponential function can be
 * a serious matter.  The error propagation involves
 * exp( X(1+delta) ) = exp(X) ( 1 + X*delta + ... ),
 * which shows that a 1 lsb error in representing X produces
 * a relative error of X times 1 lsb in the function.
 * While the routine gives an accurate result for arguments
 * that are exactly represented by a double precision
 * computer number, the result contains amplified roundoff
 * error for large arguments not exactly represented.
 *
 *
 * ERROR MESSAGES:
 *
 *   message         condition      value returned
 * expf underflow    x < MINLOGF         0.0
 * expf overflow     x > MAXLOGF         MAXNUMF
 *
