What is Exponentiation

Question

Please i am struggling with this give me a simple explanation (ಥ_ಥ)

Answer 1

Alan, you might've studied exponents/powers in maths. This is the same thing.

When a no. 'a' is raised to the power 'b', it is said to be in the form 'a^b', which is the same as 'a*a*a*...... b times'.

It is denoted as 'a**b' in Python.

So, for example, 3**4 = 3*3*3*3 = 81.

Hope it helps.

Answer 3

Exponentiation means "power"
If something is raised to some power then we use exponentiation symbol (**) to denote it
For eg :
2**3= 2*2*2=8
It just means that no. Multiplied by that no. Given no. Of times
