The investigation of exact solutions of nonlinear evolution equations plays an important role in the study of nonlinear physical phenomena. Exp-function method provides us with a straightforward and concise approach to obtaining generalized solitonary solutions and periodic solutions, the solution procedure, by the help of Matlab or Mathematica, is of utter simplicity.
