Question

Please help me

Answer 1

Hint: use for/while loop or recursion

Answer 2

pratima sharma so you want to calculate x^y, but avoid using a predefined function, like pow()?

Answer 3

If the answer to my question is yes, than as voja 🏊‍♂️ said try using for loop and continue multiplying the number x with itself until you got the y number of multiplications.

Answer 4

pratima sharma

Show some code to prove you tried.

Answer 5

pratima sharma Idk if you are , but it will most likely give ERROR on Turbo C++ , Turbo is old

Answer 6

int y = 5;
int x = 2;
int x2 = x;
for(int i = 0; i < y; i++){
x = x * x2;
}

int main() {
int y = 5;
int x = 2;
int x2 = x;
for(int i = 0; i < y-1; i++){
x = x * x2;
}

cout << x << endl;
return 0;
}
