ArgumentOutOfRangeException

exponent is negative.

Examples

The following example illustrates exponentiation using a BigInteger value and an exponent whose value ranges from 0 to 10.

BigInteger numericBase = 3040506;
for (int ctr = 0; ctr <= 10; ctr++)
{
   Console.WriteLine(BigInteger.Pow(numericBase, ctr));
}
//
// The example produces the following output to the console:
//
// 1

Remarks

The Pow method returns 1 if the value of the exponent parameter is 0, or if the values of both the value and exponent parameters are 0. If exponent is 1, the Pow method returns value. If value is negative, the method returns a negative result.

This method corresponds to the Math.Pow method for primitive numeric types.
