integer.pow

Raise this integer to the power of the given exponent. SQL compatible.

Fails on integer overflow; so if results outside integer range are expected, first convert to big_integer (e.g. with integer.to_big_integer() or big_integer(integer)) and then use big_integer.pow().

Note that:

• the exponent cannot be negative
• if the exponent is 0, the result is 1
• if the exponent is 1, the result is the original value

Parameters

• exponent — the exponent

Throws

• exception — if the result is out of integer range
