https://tex.stackexchange.com/landing/r/digest?cta=question&id=619317

7.64.1.4 plot $(e^x-x)^ \frac1 x^2  $

https://tex.stackexchange.com/landing/r/digest?cta=question&id=619328

I need to plot the function (e^x-x)^(1/(x)^2) in tikzpicture, but close to 0, apparently latex indeterminates it, does not graph it. 
This is the code I am using: 
\documentclass[1cm]{standalone}
