Is there an exponent operator in C#?

Question

For example, does an operator exist to handle this?

float Result, Number1, Number2;

Number1 = 2;
Number2 = 2;

Result = Number1 (operator) Number2;
<         


        

Answer 1

There is a blog post on MSDN about why an exponent operator does NOT exists from the C# team.

It would be possible to add a power operator to the language, but performing this operation is a fairly rare thing to do in most programs, and it doesn't seem justified to add an operator when calling Math.Pow() is simple.

You asked:

Do I have to write a loop or include another namespace to handle exponential operations? If so, how do I handle exponential operations using non-integers?

Math.Pow supports double parameters so there is no need for you to write your own.
