How to calculate exponention

Question

Did you know that there are more bacteria cells in your body than cells that make up your body? Weird!

A bacteria culture starts with 500 bacteria and doubles in size every hour.
Which means, after 1 hour the number of bacteria is 1000, after 2 hours - 2000, and so on.

Let’s calculate and output the number of bacteria that will be in the culture after 24 hours

Answer 1

PRINT(500*2**24)
BACTERIA DOUBLE EVERY HOURS SO = 500*2 ,AND THE IT IS HAPPEING FOR 24 HOUR S0=500*2**24
FINAL STEP=PRINT(500*2**24)

Answer 2

Exponentiation is explained in lesson 5 of the Python for Beginners course. Re-read the lesson

Answer 3

Power calculation need is 2**24, =>2 power 24
here ** is 'power of' operator in python.

hope it helps in complete task.

Answer 4

Answer 5
