--- Comment #1 from Regina Henschel <[email protected]> ---
The ODF standard says:
"POWER(0,0) is implementation-defined, but shall be one of 0,1, or an Error."
6.16.46, Part4, ODF 1.3

The term "implementation-defined" means, that the exact behavior is not
specified, but the application has must document, which of the choices it uses.

>From the beginning in OpenOffice 1, POWER(0;0) returned 1. Therefore I would
not change it, because it would break existing documents.

But the documentation of the behavior of LibreOffice is missing. The page
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/ODF_Implementer_Notes/List_of_LibreOffice_ODF_implementation-defined_items#Functions
is so designed, that the implementation-defined aspects of functions have to be
documented in the online help. But that is missing for the function POWER.
Therefore I set this as bug to component Documentation.

[BTW: It would be good to check, whether the other "implementation-defined"
aspects of functions are documented.]
