POWERENTER BASE AND EXPONENT
Positive exponents repeat multiplication. Zero exponents equal 1 for nonzero bases. Negative exponents use reciprocals.

FIELD NOTE / 047
An exponent tells you how the base is used as a factor.
For positive powers, the exponent counts repeated factors. Zero and negative exponents follow related rules, and same-base expressions can often be simplified by combining exponents.
