define external float function FP_pow (value float x, value y)
An exponential function that raises the floating point number "x" to the power "y".
The following code shows how to use FP_pow to calculate the future value of a single amount, expressed by the equation:
. . . set One to FP_v "1" set Principle to FP_v "1000" set InterestRate to FP_v ".1" set Time to FP_v "3" set FutureValue to FP_mul (Principle, FP_pow (FP_add (One, InterestRate), Time ) ) output "future amount is " || FP_d (FutureValue,2) || "%n"
If the principle is $1000, the interest rate 10 percent, and the time 3 years, the result would be a future amount of $1331.00.
