How is 2**5 = 32

Answer 1

2**5=2*2*2*2*2=32

Answer 2

2**2 = 2x2
2**3 = 2x2x2
2**4 = 2x2x2x2
2**5 = 2x2x2x2x2 = 32

thats mean of **

Answer 3

two asterisks ** is used for powers of numbers

Answer 4

2**5 = 2^5 = 2x2x2x2x2 = 32

Answer 5

2×2=4
2×2×2=8
2×2×2×2=16
2×2×2×2×2=32

Answer 6

but why is 9**.5 =3.0 and not 2**5 as 32.0???

Answer 7

((((2*2=4)*2=8)*2=16)*2=32)

Answer 8

Because 2 asterisks are used to show that how many times a number should be multiplied.
example: 2**5=32
that is equal to 2*2*2*2*2=32

Answer 9

16 x 2 = 32

2 ** 5 = 32

Answer 13

I don't understand this either. Why doesn't it cone out as a float? I expected it to be 32.0.

Answer 14
