/* exp(x)
 * Returns the exponential of x.
 *
 * Method
 *   1. Argument reduction:
 *      Reduce x to an r so that |r| <= 0.5*ln2 ~ 0.34658.
 *      Given x, find r and integer k such that
 *
 *               x = k*ln2 + r,  |r| <= 0.5*ln2.  
 *
 *      Here r will be represented as r = hi-lo for better 
 *      accuracy.
 *
 *   2. Approximation of exp(r) by a special rational function on
 *      the interval [0,0.34658]:
 *      Write
 *          R(r**2) = r*(exp(r)+1)/(exp(r)-1) = 2 + r*r/6 - r**4/360 + ...
 *      We use a special Remes algorithm on [0,0.34658] to generate 
 *      a polynomial of degree 5 to approximate R. The maximum error 
 *      of this polynomial approximation is bounded by 2**-59. In
 *      other words,
 *          R(z) ~ 2.0 + P1*z + P2*z**2 + P3*z**3 + P4*z**4 + P5*z**5
 *      (where z=r*r, and the values of P1 to P5 are listed below)
 *      and
 *          |                  5          |     -59
 *          | 2.0+P1*z+...+P5*z   -  R(z) | <= 2 
 *          |                             |
 *      The computation of exp(r) thus becomes
 *                             2*r
 *              exp(r) = 1 + -------
 *                            R - r
 *                                 r*R1(r)      
 *                     = 1 + r + ----------- (for better accuracy)
 *                                2 - R1(r)
 *      where
 *                               2       4             10
 *              R1(r) = r - (P1*r  + P2*r  + ... + P5*r   ).
 *      
 *   3. Scale back to obtain exp(x):
 *      From step 1, we have
 *         exp(x) = 2^k * exp(r)
 *
 * Special cases:
 *      exp(INF) is INF, exp(NaN) is NaN;
 *      exp(-INF) is 0, and
 *      for finite argument, only exp(0)=1 is exact.
 *
 * Accuracy:
 *      according to an error analysis, the error is always less than
 *      1 ulp (unit in the last place).
 *
 * Misc. info.
 *      For IEEE double 
 *          if x >  7.09782712893383973096e+02 then exp(x) overflow
 *          if x < -7.45133219101941108420e+02 then exp(x) underflow
 *
 * Constants:
 * The hexadecimal values are the intended ones for the following 
 * constants. The decimal values may be used, provided that the 
 * compiler will convert from decimal to binary accurately enough
 * to produce the hexadecimal values shown.
