Exponentiation Operator (^)

Raises a number to the power of an exponent.

result = number^exponent

Arguments

result

Any numeric variable.

number

Any numeric expression.

exponent

Any numeric expression.

Remarks

Number can be negative only if exponent is an integer value. When more than one exponentiation is performed in a single expression, the ^ operator is evaluated as it is encountered from left to right.

If either number or exponent is a Null expression, result is also Null.
