Question about PBASIC to pow(x)

weichengtop

Hello，every one，
I have a question about PBASIC,
I hope to go to operation pow with PBASIC today (x, y)function,
Because I can not find BS2 supports the mathematics functional operation,
As if I use Visual C ++, after include<cmath>,
I can spend pow (3 , - 1.66 ) is it calculate 3 to go- 1.66,
But I do not know in PBASIC how to go for operation ,
Do not know who can teach me ?
Thanks

I am not sure of exactly what you want to do but there is an excellent website on Basic Stamp mathematics and how to do complex number manipulations in PBasic on Tracy Allen's website:

Look down the page at the list of maths functions and see if there is the information you need.

What the poster wants to do is replicate the pow() function found in C. pow() takes 2 arguments - pow(x, y), and returns the result of x raised to the y power. It uses double for the datatypes.

I don't know offhand how the code would look in PBasic, so I can't help with that.
