Write a program to calculate pow(x,n) in C++
In this problem, we are given two integers x and n. Our task is to write a program to calculate the pow(x,n).
Let’s take an example to understand the problem,
Input
x = 5 , n = 3
Output
125
Program to calculate the pow(x,n),
Example
#include <iostream> using namespace std; float myPow(float x, int y) { if(y == 0) return 1; float temp = myPow(x, y / 2); if (y % 2 == 0) return temp*temp; else { if(y > 0) return x*temp*temp; else return (temp*temp)/x; } } int main() { float x = 5; int n = 7; cout<<x<<" raised to the power "<<n<<" is "<<myPow(x, n); return 0; }
Output
5 raised to the power 7 is 78125
The program shows an efficient approach by dividing the power into half and then multipling the two half and also considers the negative cases.
