In this tutorial, we are going to write a C program to write a functioning power that computes x raised to the power y for integers x and y and returns double type value in C Programming with practical program code and step-by-step full complete explanation.
C program to find the power of value using function.
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{
int x,y;
double power(int,int);
printf("Enter x, y: ");
scanf("%d%d", &x,&y);
printf("%d to power %d is %f",x,y,power(x,y));
}
double power(int x, int y)
{
double p=1.0;
if(y>=0)
while(y--)
p*=x;
else
while(y++)
p/=x;
return(p);
}
Output
Enter x,y: 16 2 16 to power 2 is 256.000000 Enter x,y: 16 -2 16 to power -2 is 0.003906
