C# | Math.Pow() Method

In C#, Math.Pow() is a Math class method. This method is used to calculate a number raise to the power of some other number.

Syntax:

public static double Pow(double base, double power)

Parameters:

double base: It is a double-precision floating-point number which is to be raised to a power and type of this parameter is System.Double.

double power: It is a double-precision floating-point number which specifies a power or exponent and type of this parameter is System.Double.

Return Type: The function returns the number base raised to the power. The type of this method is System.Double

Examples:

Input  : base = 8, power =2 
Output : 64

Input  : base = 2.5, power =3
Output : 15.625

Program: To demonstrate the Math.Pow()

// C# program to illustrate the
// Math.Pow() function
using System;
class GFG {

    // Main Method
    static public void Main()
    {

        // Find power using Math.Pow
        // 6 is base and 2 is power or
        // index or exponent of a number
        double pow_ab = Math.Pow(6, 2);

        // Print the result
        Console.WriteLine(pow_ab);

        // 3.5 is base and 3 is power or
        // index or exponent of a number
        double pow_tt = Math.Pow(3.5, 3);

        // Print the result
        Console.WriteLine(pow_tt);

        // 202 is base and 4 is power or
        // index or exponent of a number
        double pow_t = Math.Pow(202, 4);

        // Print the result
        Console.WriteLine(pow_t);
    }
}

Output:

36
42.875
1664966416
