So, then, this description would be accurate:

EXP(number) - Returns e raised to the power of the given number. The
constant e equals 2.71828182845904..., the base of the natural logarithm
(or the Eulerian number). Therefore, the function used with "number"
being 1, =EXP(1), would return 2.71828182845904...
