Returns x<sup>y </sup> - 1.
</p>
<p>
The return type of this function is computed using the <a class="link" href="../result_type.html" title="Calculation of the Type of the Result"><span class="emphasis"><em>result
type calculation rules</em></span></a> when T1 and T2 are dufferent types.
</p>
<p>
The final <a class="link" href="../../policy.html" title="Chapter 14. Policies: Controlling Precision, Error Handling etc">Policy</a> argument is optional and can
be used to control the behaviour of the function: how it handles errors,
what level of precision to use etc. Refer to the <a class="link" href="../../policy.html" title="Chapter 14. Policies: Controlling Precision, Error Handling etc">policy
documentation for more details</a>.
</p>
<p>
There are two domains where this is useful: when y is very small, or when
x is close to 1.

Implemented in terms of <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">expm1</span></code>.
