@simonellistonball , you're right, '**' would have been far more
appropriate given what most languages do. And I find your argument convincing
that the function form will be more familiar to many.
@cestella , python allows both '**' and "math.exp()". Java also uses
"Math.exp()". So I recommend we go with EXP(). Did I see in your comment in
#650 that you've now added EXP to your PR?
