Exponentiation
Exponentiation is a
mathematical operation, written as
bn, involving two numbers, the
base b and the
exponent n. When
n is a positive
integer, exponentiation corresponds to repeated
multiplication of the base: that is,
bn is the
product of multiplying
n bases:
In that case,
bn is called the
n-th power of
b, or
b raised to the power
n.
