Write a C Program to find the exponential power of a number

Write a program to find the exponential power of a number. In this C Programming example, we are going to write a program to find the exponential power of any number.

What is Exponential Power?

Multiplying a number with itself for multiple times is exponents  likewise  5² = 25, 5³=125, 12³=1728

here 5,12 are the base and the 2 and 3 is the power of that bases

Algorithm of Exponential Power

  • Include library and create the main method with void as its return type
  • Take input of the number and power to which it has to raise
  • Performing the operation and then printing the result with an appropriate message

C Program to find the exponential power of a number

#include<stdio.h>
void main(){
  int a,b,i,r;
  printf("enter the number");
  scanf("%d",&a);
  printf("enter the power");
  scanf("%d",&b);
  for(i=1;b>=i;i++){
    r=r*a;
  }
  printf("the result is %d",r);
}

Explanation of the Source Code

  • On-Line no:1  including the library  to take and give input and output respectively
  • On-Line no:2 initializing the main method with void as its return type
  • On-Line no:3  declaring variables
  • On-Line no:4 message for the user to give the base  number
  • On-Line no:5  using scanf to take and place at address
  • On-Line no:6 message for the user to give the base  number
  • On-Line no:7 using scanf to take and place at address
  • On-Line no:8 for loop to iterate the program again and again until we get the desired output
  • On-Line no:9 updating the value each time for the further increment
  • On-Line no:10  closing the scope of for loop so that the print message will be shown once only
  • On-Line no:11 printing the message of output appropriately
  • Closing other scopes

Output
