What is the method of representing exponentiation in the C language?

In the C language, you can use the math library function pow() to represent exponentiation, or you can write your own exponentiation function.

1. The math library function pow() can be used in C to calculate exponentiation. It is provided in the math.h library.
2. Calculate the result of raising x to the power of y.
3. The function takes x as the base and y as the exponent, and returns the value of x raised to the power of y. The math.h header file needs to be included, and the math library needs to be called with the -lm parameter during linkage.
4. Code example:
5. #include
   #include

   int main() {
   double result = pow(2, 3);
   printf(“The result of 2 raised to the power of 3 is: %f\n”, result);
   return 0;
   }

6. Output results:
7. 2 raised to the power of 3 is equal to 8.
8. Write your own power function:
   If you are not using the math.h library function, you can also write your own power function. The principle of a power function is to multiply the base by itself exponent times.
9. Sample code:
10. #include

    double power(double base, int exponent) {
    double result = 1.0;
    for(int i = 0; i < exponent; i++) { result *= base; } return result; } int main() { double result = power(2, 3); printf("2 to the power of 3 is: %f\n", result); return 0; }

11. Output the results:
12. 2 to the power of 3 equals 8.000000.
