Here is an example of the exp opcode. It uses the files exp.orc and exp.sco.

Example 15-1. Example of the exp opcode.

/* exp.orc */
; Initialize the global variables.
sr = 44100
kr = 4410
ksmps = 10
nchnls = 1

; Instrument #1.
instr 1
  i1 = exp(8)
  print i1
endin
/* exp.orc */
        
/* exp.sco */
; Play Instrument #1 for one second.
i 1 0 1
e
/* exp.sco */
        
Its output should include a line like this:
instr 1:  i1 = 2980.958
