I'm trying to produce a series of powers of a number as follows:
| 0.05^0:5
[1] 1 2 3 4 5
This is not the result I expected. I guess some kind of coercion happened,
since,
| class(0.05^0:5)
[1] integer
Could anyone explain me what is happening here?
Thanks,
-Sergio.

I'm sorry for the question. The answer is simple: the result is due to
operator precedence not to coercing:
| 0.05^(0:5)
[1] 1.000e+00 5.000e-02 2.500e-03
