Thread: math problem in java...

Helloue!
Today as i were at my chemistry lesson, my mind interrupted me when i was answering some questions, as i was using "raised by" in my answers i suddenly kept thinking "HOW DOW I DO THIS IN CODE(java)?!?", so i opened Eclipse(my chosen ide) and tested using that ^ symbol. i tested to print "answer" as "answer" was equal to 3^3, and i got the answer 6. Then i sunken in thoughts of how to do this.. i have used "raised by" in math before but i can't remember how to.

In java ^ is pretty much an + sign.

Plz help, THANKS!

As with most things in Java for which an operator does not exist, you would expect a method to do what you have asked. The method that raises one number to the power of another number is included in the Math class. Check that API for what you seek.

I won't go into what '^' is or does, because you can also read about that by searching for java operators and reading yourself.

Thank you!
