  21 /* How this works:
  22
  23    The input value, x, is written as
  24
  25    x = n * ln(2) + t/512 + delta[t] + x;
  26
  27    where:
  28    - n is an integer, 127 >= n >= -150;
  29    - t is an integer, 177 >= t >= -177
  30    - delta is based on a table entry, delta[t] < 2^-28
  31    - x is whatever is left, |x| < 2^-10
  32
  33    Then e^x is approximated as
  34
  35    e^x = 2^n ( e^(t/512 + delta[t])
  36                + ( e^(t/512 + delta[t])
  37                    * ( p(x + delta[t] + n * ln(2)) - delta ) ) )
  38
  39    where
  40    - p(x) is a polynomial approximating e(x)-1;
  41    - e^(t/512 + delta[t]) is obtained from a table.
  42
  43    The table used is the same one as for the double precision version;
  44    since we have the table, we might as well use it.
  45
  46    It turns out to be faster to do calculations in double precision than
  47    to perform an 'accurate table method' expf, because of the range reduction
  48    overhead (compare exp2f).
