Decimal power without using Math.pow()

how do you raise a decimal number (3.543) to a decimal power (4.235) without using Math.pow()?

Use Math.log() and Math..exp().
Math.exp(4.235*Math.log(3.543))

  • Rounding to 2 decimal places WITHOUT using any formatting class

    Hello
    I'm trying to round a number (double) to 2 decimal places without using any of the formatting class like (DecimalFormat or Math.Round and BigDecimal). Is it possible to do it by just using typecast?

    OP:
    BigDecimal is not a formatting class. Math.round isn't a class at all.
    Typecasting doesn't really do that sort of thing at all (unless you count dropping fractional components when casting to an integer type).
    double holds values in binary format, so it's basically impossible to round to decimal values meaningfully.
    Chuck:
    I thought that BigDecimal supported arbitrary decimal precision, so one doesn't have to do that sort of thing....?

  • Is using Math.pow faster than multiplying myself?

    Hi all,
    Is it faster to use Math.pow to calculate a power than to, say, multiply it myself in a loop? How about if I'm just doing a square -- is it faster to use Math.pow(x,2) than x * x?
    I noticed that the pow method in StrictMath has the keyword "native." Does this mean it's being done by the operating system? Does it mean it's being done directly in the hardware?
    Thanks!

    This is in an inner-loop deep in a simulation, so I'd like it to be as fast as possible. From the above, I'm gathering that I should keep using pow for my ^8 calculation, but substitute a simple multiplication for my ^2 calculation.Not necessarily. Remember that N^8 = ((N^2)^2)^2. The Math.pow algorithm will very likely use this optimization, but you can too.
    Related question: does it make any difference at all in these kinds of operations if I use floats or doubles? In terms of speed, I mean, not precision.Actual answer to all of your questions: try all of the possibilities in your simulation and see what actually happens.

  • How can I power up the 8115 controller without using 1078 momentary contact switch.

    I am using an 8115 controller installed in a PXIe-1078 chassis. I am rack mounting the system and I have numerous cables originating at the PXIe-1078 chassis that prevent me from using the front panel momentary switch. Is there a method to have the 8115 boot without using the momentary switch on the PXIe-1078 front panel?

    Hello EdH,
    Unfortunately there is no way to remotely control the power line of the PXIe-1078. Though the PXIe-1078 has a DIP switch on its backplane this only toggles the control of the Power from the Controller to the Backplane. With this you may be able to mimic a power on sequence but that is unsupported.

  • Why can I not restart or shut down my imac without using the power button?

    why can I not restart or shut down my imac without using the power button?

    Reset the SMC and then try a restart or shutdown from the drop down menus.

    Then if that doesn't work, backup because you have an OS X issue that will require either a repair or reinstall.

  • I am taking my iPhone5 to Peru, where the voltage in electrical outlets is 220V. Can I recharge my iphone directly from the power outlet without using a voltage converter?

    Can I recharge my iPhone 5 directly from a power oulet in Peru where the line voltage is 220V without using a voltage converter?

    I would like to have a go at this.
    I am presently in Hong Kong. Just prior to this trip, I purchased an iP5. I have taken my iP4S to many countries and charged the phone by either using the USB connection to my laptop or by using Apple's World Travel Adaptor Kit.
    Only after getting to HKG did I try to hook up my iP5 to the Apple travel adaptors and of course they do not fot and I do not have an adaptor that goes from 30 pin to the lightning cable.
    So is it actually safe to take the original iP5 cable and charger and simply add an international plug adaptor that I am also using with my laptop? If so does that in fact mean that the iP5 can take 220 without converting the voltage that I thought was done by the Apple Travel Adaptor Kit?

  • HT3964 Is there any other way to turn on a macbook air without using power button?

    Hi everyone
    I think I somehow spilled some water on the keyboard or something and now the power button does not respond. I see that the bettery is fully charged as the LED light indicates green. Now, is there any other way to turn on the computer without using powerbutton?

    Nor would you want to try to turn it on under these circumstances. If the logic board is salvagable, and the damage is now only limited to the keyboard, then putting power to the logicboard could cause a catastophic short circuit and render the whole MBA a lost cause..
    Immediately take it in to an Authorized Service Center or Apple Store Genius Bar to ascertain the damage and potential for repairability.

  • Can i turn off the option that enables iOS 8 to connect to my apple tv without using wifi?

    I am a schoolteacher and our school uses Apple-tv to project lesson contents. We have separated the students wifi network from the teachers wifi network, so our students won't be able to use the apple-tv's and disrupt our lessons.
    Since the introduction of ios8, the separated wifinetwork doesn't do the trick anymore. Students can now use every Appltv in their vicinity to project whatever image they want. This is a problem.
    Can we turn off the option that enables IOS8 to connect to apple-tv without using the wifi network?
    Thanks in advance.

    Unless buffering a rental/prior purchase to watch it should not consume significant bandwidth when connected.
    Power wise it uses 6W at most.
    You can't power off from the remote but you can set it to sleep -

  • How to use math formula on waveforms

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to create a program that can use math scipts, formulas etc on waveforms. I've done it for one signal, but I don't know how to change work on 2 or more signals;/ Let's see exampe: one channel is voltage, the second is current and I want to see both of them and as a third signal power so I'm writting formula ch3=ch1*ch2. Another example: I've signal which represents speed of starting motor (500 points) but I need only few points so the formula will be: ch1(20:120) and I have points from 20 to 120. Is it possible to do it? I can't do it using blocks cause I don't know which signal means what... so ch1 can be voltage, ch2 speed, ch3 current ch4-torqu etc. I know that I can cut a part of signal by subarray or subwaveform but it must be done by formula to use (for example) something like that:
    ch1(1:20)=0 <- replace all point from 1 to 20 of ch1 by 0
    ch2(50)=40 <-replace point 50 of ch2 by 40
    ch3=ch1*2 + ch2 <- do this operation but first do both above this one.
    Is it possible? or it's to complicated?
    I attached my vi which is working for one selected signal (I don't want to select it... but I don't know how to do it;/) and signal that I'm using to check how it's work
    Thanks

    I've upgraded it a little and it works with 2 signals but very sensible;/ formula must have this construction: c3= ... , both of signals must be switched on, there's no way to use part of signal (e.g.c1(21:54) ) and I can't use 2 rows (something like this: c3=c1*c2; c3=c1 doesn't work);/ additionally I wanted to have possibility to use all of signals as input and all of them as output

    I have just noticed that you are talking about rescuing a current project.
    My comments about cutaways still apply, but whether you will be able to shoot some "extra" footage now will depend on the nature of your film. Most things are possible with a little ingenuity.
    If your film was about the first Mars landings and you can't get there to re-shoot, all you need to do is to take a trip to Australia where they have some scenery EXACTLY like the Martian landscape - indeed there is a classified US base on the edge of it!
    Alternatively, and cheaper, you could shoot domestic footage and whenever the astronaut was about to have a jump-cut, you could have a flashback to his home life.
    So with a little imagination most problems usually can be overcome.

    PS.I do NOT subscribe to conspiracy theories and would never suggest that the martian landscapes NASA filmed were actually shot in the antipodes.

  • Double value truncated to two decimal places without rounding the value.

    I want to truncate double value to two decimal places without doing the rounding of the value.
    Is there any method which can directly do the truncation.

    There's many ways to achieve this such as using
    BigDecimal's setScale method or type-casting. This is
    the way I like to do it:double d = -5.239;
    d = d > 0 ? Math.floor(d * 100) / 100.0 : Math.ceil(d
    * 100) / 100.0;
    Your division by 100 may cause an rounding error, because there are numbers which no finite binary representation. That's splitting hairs! I know ;-)
