====== Power (Expression Function) ====== ===== Purpose ===== The **Power** function (POWER) is used obtain the exponentiation of the base value by the exponent. {{::power_initial.png?direct&600|}} ===== Parameters ===== The **Power** function has two required parameters: ==== Base ==== Allowed Inputs: [[Field|field]] value or number The first required parameter is the number that represents the base of the exponentiation either use the use the [[Query Builder]] to choose a field that contains the value or use type a value to enter a number. ==== Exponent ==== Allowed Inputs: [[Field|field]] value or a number The second required parameter of the **Power** function is the number that represents the exponent. Either use the query builder or the type a value option to enter a number. ===== Output ===== The output of the **Power** function is a number representing the exponentiation of the base value by the exponent. ===== Example ===== For example POWER(2,8) would result in 256.
