method name:
pow(aNumber_in, aPower_in)
method overview:
The pow() method returns the number raised to the power specified.
parameters:
aNumber_in - The number which is to be raised to the specified power
aPower_in - Specifies how many times aNumber_in has to be multiplied by itself.
Return value:
The aNumber_in multiplied by aPower_in times by itself.
Example:
import math #Find 2 raised to the power 5 TwoPowerFive = math.pow(2,5) print("Value of 2 raised to the power 5 is: {}".format(TwoPowerFive))
#Find speed of the light - that is approximately 3*pow(10*8) SpeedOfLight = 3*math.pow(10,8) print("Speed of light is approximately:{}".format(SpeedOfLight)) |
Output:
Value of 2 raised to the power 5 is: 32.0Speed of light is approximately:300000000.0 meters per second |
