How would you pronounce "e^π"?

Example: Which is larger, e[SUP]π[/SUP] or π[SUP]e[/SUP]?
[From a high school math test. (Translation mine.)]

"ee to the power of pie" or "ee to the pie".

Try this: "ee to the pie eye equals minus one".

How would you pronounce to?

Use the weak form. In the first side of the equation, put stress on ee and pie and eye, but not on to or the.

ee to the pie eye
