Used to raise a number to the power of an exponent.
result = number^exponent
The ^ operator syntax has these parts:
| Part | Description |
| result | Any numeric variable. |
| number | Any numeric expression. |
| exponent | Any numeric expression. |
Number can be negative only if exponent is an integer value. When more than one exponentiation is performed in a single expression, the ^ operator is evaluated as it is encountered from left to right.
Usually, the data type of result is a Double or a Variant containing a Double. However, if either number or exponent is a Null expression, result is also Null.
Operator Precedence.
This example uses the ^ operator to raise a number to the power of an exponent.
MyValue = 2 ^ 2 ' Returns 4.= 3 ^ 3 ^ 3 ' Returns 19683.= (-5) ^ 3 ' Returns -125.
