How to translate an equation with exponents and sin function to C?

Question

How could I write it in C language? I tried many things, but it seems that I cannot understand the exp and sin functions.

Is there any more context to this function? It looks suspiciously like it is designed to force (severe) loss of accuracy, very roughly for |x| < 2, as there is cancellation of the constant, linear, quadratic, and cubic terms in the series expansion. — njuffa, Dec 20 '20 at 00:54

A direct implementation could be:

double y = exp(pow(sin(x),3)) + pow(x,6) - 2*pow(x,4) - pow(x,3) - 1.0;
