[Name]
pow
[Syntax]
#include <math.h>
double pow( double x, double y ) ;
[Arguments]
x A floating point value to be raised.
y An exponent value.
[Return]
Returns "x" raised to the power of "y".
If "x" is 0 and "y" is negative, returns HUGE_VAL and sets EDOM in the
global variable "errno". If both "x" and "y" are 0 or "x" is negative
and "y" is not an integer, returns 0 and sets EDOM in the global
variable "errno". If the result is too large, returns +/-HUGE_VAL and
sets ERANGE in the global variable "errno".
[Description]
Calculates "x" raised to the power of "y".
