1. The ** operator will, internally, use an iterative function (same semantics as built-in pow() (Python docs), which likely means it just calls that function anyway). Therefore, if you know the power and can hardcode it, using 2*2*2 would likely be a little faster than 2**3. This has a little to do with the function, but I believe the main ...
85. Is there an exponential operator in Java? For example, if a user is prompted to enter two numbers and they enter 3 and 2, the correct answer would be 9. import java.util.Scanner; public class Exponentiation {. public static double powerOf (double p) {. double pCubed; pCubed = p*p; return (pCubed);
2. It's not working because c as well as c++ do not have any operators to perform power operations. What you can do is, you can use math.h library and use pow function. There is a Function for this instead of the operator. ` #include<stdio.h>. #include<math.h>. int main(){. int base = 3; int power = 5;
I feel foolish for asking and I'm sure there's a simple answer. I'm trying to get a power for a number as follows: Sub test() Dim number As Long number = 2^8 ' Expect to get 256 here End Sub This produces an error: 'Expected: list separator or )'. I'm surprised this doesn't work. I'm aware that there's an Excel defined power function.
You can also wrap the output of a cmdlet (or pipeline) in @() to ensure that what you get back is an array rather than a single item.
Try using: bmi = weight / Math.pow(height / 100.0, 2.0); Because both height and 100 are integers, you were likely getting the wrong answer when dividing. However, 100.0 is a double. I suggest you make weight a double as well. Also, the ^ operator is not for powers. Use the Math.pow() method instead.
Actually, in C you don't have an power operator. You will need to manually run a loop to get the result. Even the exp function just operates in that way only. But if you need to use that function, include the following header. #include <math.h> Then, you can use pow().
May 13, 2020 at 15:06. 3. C, C++, and C# have no exponentiation operator. They use the symbol ^ for bitwise exclusive-or, so it seems unwise to overload ^ as exponentiation (despite BASIC's long tradition). If someone wants to add an exponentiation operator, other choices have merit too.
The x << n is a left shift of the binary number which is the same as multiplying x by 2 n number of times and that can only be used when raising 2 to a power, and not other integers. The POW function is a math function that will work generically. Specifically, 1 << n is the same as raising 2 to the power n, or 2^n.
2: Yes: But you already know it: `^`(x,y) #[1] 1024. In R the mathematical operators are really functions that the parser takes care of rearranging arguments and function names for you to simulate ordinary mathematical infix notation.
