how can I calculate exponential fraction

Question

If I want to calculate 5.24^3.2478. The base and exponential is fractional. Is there some function to realize it?

the base of frexp is 2.

Answer 1

As you mentioned C++ in the tag, try one of this method:

double pow (double base     , double exponent);
float pow (float base      , float exponent);
long double pow (long double base, long double exponent);
double pow (Type1 base      , Type2 exponent); // additional overloads

Returns base raised to the power exponent.
