exponents?
Exponents are an easier and faster way to write repeated
multiplication of the same thing by itself.

Example : If i had 3 printouts

0
2 =1 of the number
1
2 =2=2 5 the exponent
3
2
2 = 2x2 = 4 would be 5
3
2 = 2x2x2 = 8
4
2 = 2x2x2x2 = 16
5
2 = 2x2x2x2x2 = 32 5 3
6
2 = 2x2x2x2x2x2 = 64
7 5 - base
2 = 2x2x2x2x2x2x2 = 128 3 - exponent
8
2 = 2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2 = 256
9
2 = 2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2 = 512
10
2 = 2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2 = 1024 There are 8
