squareMatrix

Returns 10 raised to the power of

squareMatrix1

.

This is

not

the same as calculating 10 raised to

the power of each element. For information about
the calculation method, refer to

cos()

.

squareMatrix1

must be diagonalizable. The result

always contains floating-point numbers.
