Yea that's how I figured to get around the math.pow() I was just having some trouble implementing that into the algorithm.

Yea that's how I figured to get around the math.pow() I was just having some trouble implementing that into the algorithm.
Need a more efficient algorithm for finding the highest pth of a number.
This is my algorithm so far:
public static int getPth(int x) {
int largestP = 1;
for (int p = 1; p < x; p++) {
for (int b = 1; b < x; b++) {
...
