I have the following formula:
x = z + (1+y)^3

I need to put this in c++ syntax. This is what I have:

x=z+((1E3)+(yE3))

Is this correct?

 
No I don't think that is correct.


for the formula x = z + (1+y)^3

use cmath.

x = z + pow((1+y),3);
 
For small integer pow I advise you to not use function pow. For example you can do like this:
x = z + (1+y) *(1+y) *(1+y);
