I can't remember how to use power function "^" to find the nth root of a number. To find the 2ndth root of a number we can use the "sqrt ()" function. But to find the nth root????

For instance, lets say I want to convert a number to scientific notation (the 10th root of that number)... I used to know how to use the power function to do this. Anyone remember how to do it?

I tried to get the 10th root (scientific notation) of 100 (which should = 2) by: 100^(1/10) ... but that isn't it.

Any ideas?  I feel brain dead.
