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 + 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
