C-Sharp Pow Example – Code Sample Syntax
C-Sharp Pow Example – Code Sample Syntax
Purpose: – Illustrates using C-Sharp Pow Code Example.
Purpose:
takes two double data type numbers and raises the
first number to the power of the second. The result is
returned as a double data type.
Syntax:
Pow(doublenumberbase, doublenumberpower)
Pow(doublenumberbase, doublenumberpower)
Parameters | Description | doublenumberbase | Any valid System.Double data type number This is the number that will raised to the power specified in the second parameter |
---|---|
doublenumberpower | Any valid System.Double data type number This is the number that used as the power to be applied to the first parameter |
Result Data Type | Description | double | returns the first parameter raised to the power of the second input parameter |
---|
Quick Example | Pow(2,3) // Returns 8 |
---|
Step 1: Click cs to Cut-n-paste code into clsPow.cs

Notes:
- Console Application is used to simplify things, but Windows Forms or Web Forms could also be used
- You can build a library of syntax examples by using same project over and over and just commenting out what you do not want to execute in Module1.cs
