ee.Array.exp

  • Array.exp() calculates the exponential of each element in an input array, raising Euler's number (e) to the power of each element.

  • The function returns a new array with the calculated exponential values.

  • It can be applied to arrays of any numeric data type and even empty arrays.

  • The examples provided showcase its usage in both JavaScript and Python environments for interactive visualization.

 On an element-wise basis, computes the Euler's number e raised to the power of the input.

UsageReturns
Array.exp()Array

this: inputArrayThe input array.

Examples

Code Editor (JavaScript)

var empty = ee.Array([], ee.PixelType.int8());
print(empty.exp());  // []

// [Math.pow(Math.E, -1), 1, Math.E, 7.389]
print(ee.Array([-1, 0, 1, 2]).exp());

var start = -5;
var end = 2;
var points = ee.Array(ee.List.sequence(start, end, null, 50));
var values = points.exp();

// Plot exp() defined above.
var chart = ui.Chart.array.values(values, 0, points)
    .setOptions({
      viewWindow: {min: start, max: end},
      hAxis: {
        title: 'x',
        viewWindowMode: 'maximized',
      },
      vAxis: {
        title: 'exp(x)',
      },
      lineWidth: 1,
      pointSize: 0,
    });
print(chart);

Python setup

See the Python Environment page for information on the Python API and using geemap for interactive development.

import ee
import geemap.core as geemap

Colab (Python)

import altair as alt
import pandas as pd

empty = ee.Array([], ee.PixelType.int8())
display(empty.exp())  # []

# [pow(math.e, -1), 1, math.e, 7.389]
display(ee.Array([-1, 0, 1, 2]).exp())

start = -5
end = 2
points = ee.Array(ee.List.sequence(start, end, None, 50))
values = points.exp()

df = pd.DataFrame({'x': points.getInfo(), 'exp(x)': values.getInfo()})

# Plot exp() defined above.
alt.Chart(df).mark_line().encode(
    x=alt.X('x'),
    y=alt.Y('exp(x)')
)
