not going to happen. just suck it up and use pow(). Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-10-19 18:51:47] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I proposed that earlier (along with ^^) [ZendEnginge ML, june 27th & july 3rd]. Anyway, I think it should be added, there is simply no power operator now, and pow() is both a bit bugly and overloaded (both ^^ and ** at the same time). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-10-19 11:24:28] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ** is Pascal, not C ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-10-19 10:36:03] [EMAIL PROTECTED] It would be nice to have an exponential operator. ** would be a logical choice, just like in C. Example: echo 2**3; // prints 8 I know we have pow(), but an operator for this would be nice... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=13756&edit=1
