Thread: exp(x) vs :

exp(x) vs :

From
"Robert B. Easter"
Date:
SELECT : 1;  -- returns e
Works, but gives a NOTICE that the : operator is depreciated and that
exp(x) should be used instead.

SELECT exp(1);
Gets ERROR: exp(INT4) does not exist.

SELECT exp(1.0);
Works fine of course.

Just seems strange that a depreciated operator actually works smoother.
