# power({m},{n})

Returns *m* raised to the *n_th power. \_m*, *n* can be any numeric value in the range of -1.797e308 <= *m*, *n* <= 1.797e308. Returns null if *m* = 0 and *n* < 0.

- If *m* = 0, *n* must be a non-negative value.
- If *m* < 0, *n* must be an integer value.
- The result of power(*m*, *n*) must be within the range expressed by a float64 number.

`power({m},{n})` takes the following syntax.

```nolang
SELECT power(M,N) as AliasName
FROM dataset;
```
