POWER(n,p)
- is the base value
- is the power value
Description
- This function gives the value of a number raised to a power.
- The power of a number indicating how many times we have to multiply the number.
- For e.g =POWER(4,3) = 4*4*4 = 63.
- In , is the base value. It can be + or - .
- is the power(exponent) value to which the is raised.
- Power is also called Exponents or Indices.
- Anything raised to the power 0 is equal to 1. i.e. POWER(7,0) = 1.
- We can use the ^ operator instead of POWER function.
