will exponentiation have a better explanation to come?

Question

Help and/or the definition with some ed and overview for us non mathmatically sound minds lol

Answer 1

You just need to multiplicate the same number as many times as it needs:
for example: 2**3 = 2*2*2 = 4 * 2 = 8
I don't know other explaination sorry... I tried my best

Answer 2

For example, 2**4 is equal to 2*2*2*2:
This will give 16.

More examples:
2**2 = 2*2 = 4
3**3 = 3*3*3 = 27
4**3 = 4*4*4 = 64
