<function>expm1</function> returns the equivalent to

'exp(<parameter>arg</parameter>) - 1' computed in a way that is
|
|
accurate even if the value of <parameter>arg</parameter> is near zero,
|
|
a case where 'exp (<parameter>arg</parameter>) - 1' would be
|
|
inaccurate due to subtraction of two numbers that are nearly equal.
