"Which is a correct way to perform exponentiation in Python?" 1) math.pow(a,b) 2) a^b 3) a*2b 4) None of the other responses are correct Apparently I was wrong by answering 4), and 1) is the expected answer. Clearly the author doesn't know about the ** operator in python. It appears that no serious python coders were consulted when writing these questions. ~Andrew -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
