Python pow() Function
The pow() function in Python return the parameter ‘x’ to the power ‘y’ and if the parameter ‘z’ is present, it returns x to the power y, modulo z (computed more efficiently than pow(x, y) % z).
Syntax
1 2 3 |
pow(x, y[, z]) |
Parameter
x: This parameter represents the base number.
y: This parameter represents the exponent number
z: It is an optional parameter that represents the modulus.
Return
This function returns x to the power y; if z is present, return x to the power y, modulo z.
Example 1
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 |
# Python program explaining # the pow() function num = 1 for i in range(1,5): num=3*num print ("The value of 3**4 is: ",end="") print (num) # representing the above with pow() class method print("After calling the pow() method") print ("The pow value of 3**4 is:",pow(3,4)) |
Output
1 2 3 4 5 |
The value of 3**4 is: 81 After calling the pow() method The pow value of 3**4 is: 81 |
