I know the syntax in sybase to get 2^8 is
power(2,8)
but this doesn't work for what i need. My query comes out to:
power(1.739, 15)
which gives a truncation error. But the result would be 4,022.478... so i don't understand why it would give an error. Does anyone know the rules on what numbers are ok to use with power??
power(2,15) works.
power(1.7,2) doesn't.
power(1.7,1.5) works. I don't get it!!
