POWER(n,p)

• $n$ is the base value
• $p$ 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 $POWER(n,p)$ ,$n$ is the base value.It can be any + or - .
• $p$ is the power (exponent) value to which the $n$ 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.

Examples

1. POWER(17,4)=83521
2. POWER(26,1)=26
3. POWER(5.2,3)=140.608
4. POWER(6,0.2)=1.430969081
5. POWER(2,3/4)=1.681792831
6. POWER(50,0)=1
7. POWER(7,-2)=0.020408163
