1-4) Computes the value of base raised to the power exp. The library provides overloads of std::pow for all cv-unqualified floating-point types as the type of the parameters base and exp.(since C++23)

A) Additional overloads are provided for all other combinations of arithmetic types.

(since C++11) [edit] Parameters base - base as a floating-point or integer value exp - exponent as a floating-point or integer value [edit] Return value

If no errors occur, base raised to the power of exp (baseexp
), is returned.

If a domain error occurs, an implementation-defined value is returned (NaN where supported).

If a pole error or a range error due to overflow occurs, ±HUGE_VAL, ±HUGE_VALF, or ±HUGE_VALL is returned.

If a range error occurs due to underflow, the correct result (after rounding) is returned.

[edit] Error handling

Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling.

If base is finite and negative and exp is finite and non-integer, a domain error occurs and a range error may occur.

If base is zero and exp is zero, a domain error may occur.

If base is zero and exp is negative, a domain error or a pole error may occur.

If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559),

[edit] Notes

C++98 added overloads where exp has type int on top of C pow(), and the return type of std::pow(float, int) was float. However, the additional overloads introduced in C++11 specify that std::pow(float, int) should return double. LWG issue 550 was raised to target this conflict, and the resolution is to removed the extra int exp overloads.

Although std::pow cannot be used to obtain a root of a negative number, std::cbrt is provided for the common case where exp is 1/3.

The additional overloads are not required to be provided exactly as (A). They only need to be sufficient to ensure that for their first argument num1 and second argument num2:

(until C++23)

If num1 and num2 have arithmetic types, then std::pow(num1, num2) has the same effect as std::pow(static_cast</*common-floating-point-type*/>(num1),
         static_cast</*common-floating-point-type*/>(num2))
, where /*common-floating-point-type*/ is the floating-point type with the greatest floating-point conversion rank and greatest floating-point conversion subrank between the types of num1 and num2, arguments of integer type are considered to have the same floating-point conversion rank as double.

If no such floating-point type with the greatest rank and subrank exists, then overload resolution does not result in a usable candidate from the overloads provided.

(since C++23) [edit] Example
#include <cerrno>
#include <cfenv>
#include <cmath>
#include <cstring>
#include <iostream>
// #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
 
int main()
{
    // typical usage
    std::cout << "pow(2, 10) = " << std::pow(2, 10) << '\n'
              << "pow(2, 0.5) = " << std::pow(2, 0.5) << '\n'
              << "pow(-2, -3) = " << std::pow(-2, -3) << '\n';
 
    // special values
    std::cout << "pow(-1, NAN) = " << std::pow(-1, NAN) << '\n'
              << "pow(+1, NAN) = " << std::pow(+1, NAN) << '\n'
              << "pow(INFINITY, 2) = " << std::pow(INFINITY, 2) << '\n'
              << "pow(INFINITY, -1) = " << std::pow(INFINITY, -1) << '\n';
 
    // error handling
    errno = 0;
    std::feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT);
 
    std::cout << "pow(-1, 1/3) = " << std::pow(-1, 1.0 / 3) << '\n';
    if (errno == EDOM)
        std::cout << "    errno == EDOM " << std::strerror(errno) << '\n';
    if (std::fetestexcept(FE_INVALID))
        std::cout << "    FE_INVALID raised\n";
 
    std::feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT);
 
    std::cout << "pow(-0, -3) = " << std::pow(-0.0, -3) << '\n';
    if (std::fetestexcept(FE_DIVBYZERO))
        std::cout << "    FE_DIVBYZERO raised\n";
}

Possible output:

pow(2, 10) = 1024
pow(2, 0.5) = 1.41421
pow(-2, -3) = -0.125
pow(-1, NAN) = nan
pow(+1, NAN) = 1
pow(INFINITY, 2) = inf
pow(INFINITY, -1) = 0
pow(-1, 1/3) = -nan
    errno == EDOM Numerical argument out of domain
    FE_INVALID raised
pow(-0, -3) = -inf
    FE_DIVBYZERO raised
