Mathf.Pow

Parameters

Returns

float Result of the exponentiation operation.

Description

Returns the result of raising f to the power p.

The behaviour of exponentiation varies greatly depending on the sign and range of the exponent p:

• For real numbers in the range [1, ∞], the result of exponentiation is equal to the result of multiplying f by itself p times.
• For fractional numbers in the range (0, 1), the result of exponentiation is equal to the result of computing the n-th root of f, with n being 1/p.
• For the value 0, you will get the value 1.
• For real numbears in the range [-∞, 0), the result of exponentiation is equal to the result of diving 1 by the result of raising f to the absolute (non-signed) value of p.
