3.2.39 EXP_ - NATURAL EXPONENTIATION
EXP_ function blocks perform the natural exponentiation function,
base “e”. The output will be the value “e” raised to the power of
input X.
3.2.40 EXT_ - EXPONENTIATION
EXT_ function blocks will provide an output that equals the Y
input raised to the power of X input. All negative values of input
Y will be treated as 0.0. When input Y is 0.0 and X is negative,
the output will be set to the maximum number (i.e. 1.17...e38).
