+
+#### stdlib_base_cexp( z )
+
+Evaluates the [exponential][exponential-function] function for a double-precision complex floating-point number.

+
+stdlib_complex128_t z = stdlib_complex128( 0.0, 0.0 );

+
+double re = stdlib_real( out );
+// returns 1.0
+
+double im = stdlib_imag( out );
+// returns 0.0

+
+The function accepts the following arguments:
+
+-   **z**: `[in] stdlib_complex128_t` input value.
+
+```c
