POWER

Returns a value raised to the exponent you pass to the function.

Syntax

POWER( base, exponent )

The following table describes the arguments for this command:

Argument	Required/ Optional	Description
base	Required	Numeric value. This argument is the base value. You can enter any valid transformation expression. If the base value is negative, the exponent must be an integer.
exponent	Required	Numeric value. This argument is the exponent value. You can enter any valid transformation expression. If the base value is negative, the exponent must be an integer. In this case, the function rounds any decimal values to the nearest integer before returning a value.
