Comment on: “New exact solutions for the Kawahara equation using Exp-function method” [J. Comput. Appl. Math. 233 (2009) 97–102]

Assas [Laila M.B. Assas, New exact solutions for the Kawahara equation using Exp-function method, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 233 (2009) 97–102] found some supposedly new exact solutions to the Kawahara equation by means of the Exp-function method. Unfortunately, they are incorrect. We emphasize that the article contains erroneous formulas and resulting relations. In fact, no numerical method was used.
