I've been trying to work on issue #11677 <https://github.com/sympy/sympy/issues/11677>. 1. I'm unable to understand the exact difference between what an *integer symbol* and an *integer value* is. 2. There is a difference between what m.*__*pow*__*(4 )returns and what m. *__*pow*__*(4.0) returns.

Why exactly are the return values different (Or do they mean the same thing)? I am unable to make sense of the output when m.__pow__(4.0) is executed.
