Value1
The base which should be raised.
Value2
The exponent to which the base should be raised.
Returns
The first number raised to the power of the second number.
Raises a number to the power of a second number. 3 ^ 33 ^ 3 is equivalent to 3 * 3 * 33 * 3 * 3 and returns 27.
This operator also works with arrays. { 3, 4 } ^ 3{ 3; 4 } ^ 3 returns the array { 27, 64 }{ 27; 64 } (equivalent to { 3 ^ 3, 4 ^ 3 }{ 3 ^ 3; 4 ^ 3 }) and { 3, 4 } ^ { 3, 4 }{ 3; 4 } ^ { 3; 4 } returns the array { 27, 256 }{ 27; 256 } (equivalent to { 3 ^ 3, 4 ^ 4 }{ 3 ^ 3; 4 ^ 4 }).
The POWER function is equivalent to this operator. These formulas return the same result:
Examples
Returns 27.
Returns the array { 27, 64 }{ 27; 64 }, equivalent to { 3 ^ 3, 4 ^ 3 }{ 3 ^ 3; 4 ^ 3 }.
Returns the array { 27, 256 }{ 27; 256 }, equivalent to { 3 ^ 3, 4 ^ 4 }{ 3 ^ 3; 4 ^ 4 }.
