2. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

   In mathematics, exponentiation is an operation involving two numbers: the base and the exponent or power. Exponentiation is written as b n, where b is the base and n is the power; often said as "b to the power n ". [1]

3. Exponential function - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_function

   Exponential functions with bases 2 and 1/2. In mathematics, the exponential function is the unique real function which maps zero to one and has a derivative equal to its value. . The exponential of a variable ⁠ ⁠ is denoted ⁠ ⁡ ⁠ or ⁠ ⁠, with the two notations used interchangeab

4. Base (exponentiation) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_(exponentiation)

   The number n is called the exponent and the expression is known formally as exponentiation of b by n or the exponential of n with base b. It is more commonly expressed as "the nth power of b", "b to the nth power" or "b to the power n". For example, the fourth power of 10 is 10,000 because 10 4 = 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 10,000.

5. Subscript and superscript - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subscript_and_superscript

   In mathematics, high superscripts are used for exponentiation to indicate that one number or variable is raised to the power of another number or variable. Thus y 4 is y raised to the fourth power, 2 x is 2 raised to the power of x , and the equation E = mc 2 includes a term for the speed of light squared .

6. List of mathematical functions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_functions

   Sigma function: Sums of powers of divisors of a given natural number. Euler's totient function: Number of numbers coprime to (and not bigger than) a given one. Prime-counting function: Number of primes less than or equal to a given number. Partition function: Order-independent count of ways to write a given positive integer as a sum of positive ...

7. Floating-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating-point_arithmetic

   A simple method to add floating-point numbers is to first represent them with the same exponent. In the example below, the second number (with the smaller exponent) is shifted right by three digits, and one then proceeds with the usual addition method: 123456.7 = 1.234567 × 10^5 101.7654 = 1.017654 × 10^2 = 0.001017654 × 10^5

8. e (mathematical constant) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_(mathematical_constant)

   The number e is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 2.71828 that is the base of the natural logarithm and exponential function.It is sometimes called Euler's number, after the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler, though this can invite confusion with Euler numbers, or with Euler's constant, a different constant typically denoted .

9. Tetration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetration

   Allows for super-powers and super-exponential function by increasing the number of arrows; used in the article on large numbers. Text notation exp _ a ^ n(x) Based on standard notation; convenient for ASCII. J Notation x ^^: (n-1) x: Repeats the exponentiation. See J (programming language) [7] Infinity barrier notation
