Let's take a common function like y=Exp[x]
If I try to make a picture of this function in an implicit way with 
ContourPlot in the form
ContourPlot[Log[y]-x,{x,-10,10},{y,-10,10}, 
PlotPoints->30,Contours->{0},ContourShading->False]
with the option PlotPoints->30 in order to have a more precise picture I 
obtain an error message:
    ContourGraphics::ctpnt:
    The contour is attempting to traverse a cell in which some of the
    points have not evaluated to numbers, and it will be dropped.
and no picture.
But if I let the option PlotPoints his default value the message is the 
same, but now the picture is drawn.
Could anyone explain what happens?
