raise a to the b power

Comment

Powering large numbers: i.e. 123^456
a^b can be taken with alograthm, such as log for base 10.

To compute a^b, we can rewrite this as 10^(log(a)*10^log(b))
Since 10^log(b) = b, the equation becomes 10^(log(a)*b)
so, 123^456 = 10^(log(123)*456) = 10^(952.9967308)
We can seperate this by the power law,
That is, 10^(952.9967308) = 10^(0.9967308) * 10^(952)
Since the first part is small enough to be evaluated, we can rewrite this as:
9.925006877*10^952 = 123^456
