An article has implied that antilog and exponentiation $e$ just mean the same thing. All I know about antilog though is that it means an inverse logarithm. I don't know if it has a mathematical symbol or anything else, and want to check whether antilog does in fact mean $e$, or if some simple examples can be given that might help understand the earlier link, or in what situations an antilog is possible or not, given that the function in the link contains a logarithm but is not entirely a logarithmic function.

$\begingroup$Yes the natural log of $e^{x}$ is $x$ and $e^{\ln{x}}=x$ so it is reasonable to say that taking the exponential (to base $e$) is the same as the antilog (to base $e$). The inverse of log to base $10$ (for example) is to raise $10$ to the power of $x$.
