  2. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    When an exponent is a positive integer, that exponent indicates how many copies of the base are multiplied together. For example, 3 5 = 3 · 3 · 3 · 3 · 3 = 243. The base 3 appears 5 times in the multiplication, because the exponent is 5. Here, 243 is the 5th power of 3, or 3 raised to the 5th power.

  3. Scientific notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation

    Conversion between different scientific notation representations of the same number with different exponential values is achieved by performing opposite operations of multiplication or division by a power of ten on the significand and an subtraction or addition of one on the exponent part.

  4. Exponentiation by squaring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation_by_squaring

    Exponentiation by squaring can be viewed as a suboptimal addition-chain exponentiation algorithm: it computes the exponent by an addition chain consisting of repeated exponent doublings (squarings) and/or incrementing exponents by one (multiplying by x) only.

  5. Power of 10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_10

    Scientific notation is a way of writing numbers of very large and very small sizes compactly when precision is less important. A number written in scientific notation has a significand (sometime called a mantissa) multiplied by a power of ten. Sometimes written in the form: m × 10 n. Or more compactly as: 10 n

  6. Order of operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

    When exponents were introduced in the 16th and 17th centuries, they were given precedence over both addition and multiplication and placed as a superscript to the right of their base. [2] Thus 3 + 5 2 = 28 and 3 × 5 2 = 75. These conventions exist to avoid notational ambiguity while allowing notation to remain brief. [4]

  7. Power of two - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_two

    Visualization of powers of two from 1 to 1024 (2 0 to 2 10) as base-2 Dienes blocks. A power of two is a number of the form 2 n where n is an integer, that is, the result of exponentiation with number two as the base and integer n as the exponent.

  8. Order of magnitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_magnitude

    For a number written in scientific notation, this logarithmic rounding scale requires rounding up to the next power of ten when the multiplier is greater than the square root of ten (about 3.162). For example, the nearest order of magnitude for 1.7 × 10 8 is 8, whereas the nearest order of magnitude for 3.7 × 10 8 is 9.

  9. 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.
