calculating powers

[xlav]

Tried to calculate 2 cubed using 2^3 but it doesn't work. Is there another operator that I can use without using pow() in math.h?.

-x

result = pow(2, 3);

Thanks. It seems there is no alternative to pow().

why? you can try
2 * 2 * 2

Howdy,

Power(const Extended Base, const Extended Exponent)
IntPower(const Extended Base, const int Exponent)

Both are defined in math.hpp (that's not math.h
There are a LOT more math functions defined in (BorlandDirectory)\Includes\VCL\math.hpp. They may be useful in the future...

Good luck,

No! Try not. Do, or do not. There is no try. - Yoda

Thanks for your suggestions.

Hey !!!


You can always try j=i<<k;
where
i=2;
k=3-1; // when you want to calculate Cube
// if square then, k=2-1
Its 100% platform independent.
