Example code : Calculate the exponent of 2 |
var
float : Double;
begin // Get the natural logarithm of 2
float := Ln(2);
// Show this value
ShowMessage('Ln(2) = '+FloatToStr(float));
// Get the exponent of this value - reverses the Ln operation
float := Exp(float);
// Show this value
ShowMessage('Exp(Ln(2)) = '+FloatToStr(float));
end;
