Understanding Exponentiation
Exponentiation, also known as raising to a power, is a mathematical operation involving two numbers: the base and the exponent (or power). It represents repeated multiplication of the base by itself as many times as the exponent indicates.
For example, in \( 2^3 = 8 \), 2 is the base and 3 is the exponent. This means \( 2 \times 2 \times 2 = 8 \). If the exponent is negative, like \( 2^-2 \), it means \( 1 / 2^2 = 1 / 4 = 0.25 \).
This calculator simplifies the process of exponentiation, allowing you to quickly find the power of any base raised to any integer exponent. Use it for various mathematical calculations, from simple powers to more complex expressions.
