     10 .SH DESCRIPTION
     11 .B zpow
     12 calculates the
     13 .IR exponent :th
     14 power of a
     15 .IR base ,
     16 and stores the result in
     17 .IR power .
     18 That is,
     19 .I power
     20 gets
     21 .I base
     22 ↑
     23 .IR exponent .
     24 .P
     25 It is safe to call
     26 .B zpow
     27 with non-unique parameters.
