Good evening! Here's our prompt for today.
Given a number x and an integer n, find the value of x raised to the power n ( xn ).
For example, consider the following two numbers,
SNIPPET
1x = 2.1, n = 3If the number 2.1 is multiplied by itself 3 times, then the answer is 9.261 (rounded to the nearest 100), which is 2.1 raised to the power 3.
Constraints
- -100.0 < x < 100.0
- -231 <= n <= 231-1
- -104 <= xn <= 104
Try to solve this here or in Interactive Mode.
