Java - pow() Method

---

Description:

The method returns the value of the first argument raised to the power of the second argument.

Syntax:

double pow(double base, double exponent)

Parameters:

Here is the detail of parameters:

• base -- A primitive data type

• exponenet -- A primitive data type

Return Value:

• This method Returns the value of the first argument raised to the power of the second argument.

Example:

public class Test{ 

   public static void main(String args[]){
      double x = 11.635;
      double y = 2.76;

      System.out.printf("The value of e is %.4f%n", Math.E);
      System.out.printf("pow(%.3f, %.3f) is %.3f%n",
                                         x, y, Math.pow(x, y));

   }
}

This produces the following result:

The value of e is 2.7183
pow(11.635, 2.760) is 874.008
