pow

pow#

Signature#

nabla.pow(x: 'Array | float | int', y: 'Array | float | int') -> 'Array'

Description#

Computes x raised to the power of y element-wise.

This function calculates x ** y for each element in the input arrays. It supports broadcasting and provides the implementation of the ** operator for Nabla arrays.

Parameters#

  • x (Array | float | int): The base array or scalar.

  • y (Array | float | int): The exponent array or scalar. Must be broadcastable to the same shape as x.

Returns#

  • Array: An array containing the result of the element-wise power operation.

Examples#

>>> import nabla as nb
>>> x = nb.array([1, 2, 3])
>>> y = nb.array([2, 3, 2])
>>> nb.pow(x, y)
Array([1, 8, 9], dtype=int32)

>>> x ** y
Array([1, 8, 9], dtype=int32)
