Function to calculate exponential growth.

Description

Exponential growth is also called geometric growth and has the property of the rate of change is proportional to the quantity itself.

Usage

exponential_growth(start, rate, steps = 1)

Arguments

start	The starting condition where exponential growth begins.
rate	The growth rate or exponent to represent growth.
steps	The number of discrete growth iterations.

Value

Numeric vector.

Examples

# Starting condition of 10000 with a low value for the exponential growth
exponential_growth(start = 10000, rate = 1.1, steps = 6)

# The same starting condition but with twice the growth rate, a huge change
exponential_growth(start = 10000, rate = 1.1 * 2, steps = 6)
