power in javascript

//using the exponent operator
console.log( number ** exponent);
// using the Math library 
console.log( Math.pow(number, exponent);
// these will both output 8 
5
//squared numbers

Math.pow(x1, 2)
x1 * x1
x1 ** 2                  // ES6 syntax
5
Math.pow(base, exponent)
4
Math.pow(base, exponent);

Math.pow(2, 4);
