Hi,
this seems quite a simple problem, but i can't see asimple solution,
if i want to carry out the calculation of x to the power y, where y is a whole number, labview caters for this in two ways,
either through the 'scale through power of two', which requires you to devide you x by 2, but it works, or
by initialising an array of the input with x, with a dimension size of y, and then 'Multiply array elements'
Bot hof these seem to work for a whole number.
What if wanted to have a power of say y=0.2?? or any non-whole number??
is there an x^y icon i've missed???
Please help!! - many preemptive thanks!!
