|  |  D.5.10.2 matrixExp Procedure from libraryorbitparam.lib(see  orbitparam_lib).
 
Example:Usage:
matrixExp(A); A matrix.
Assume:
A is a nilpotent n x n matrix.
If the characteristic p of the ground field is positive, then n has to be
smaller than p.
 
Return:
matrix, exp(A)
Theory:
We compute the power series, which terminates since A is nilpotent.
