❓❓ Do you know how to calculate this power without using a calculator ❓❓ Decimal power exponent

The calculator is a great help in math, but it must be a substitute for what we know how to do. For the calculation of powers, logarithms are very useful, when there were no calculators, logarithm tables or calculation rules were used. ↓↓↓ Leave your comment ↓↓↓

    We solve this exponential to a non-integer power by introducing a new operator.... then reversing it's output by solving a new number raised to a new non-integer power. While correct, this is still thoroughly cursed recursion. "Look it up in tables" is not a satisfying answer.

    I was on tenterhooks during the first half of the video, wondering whether you were going to use logarithms, or whether you were using a flashy new method that I hadn't heard about. You're right though. Logarithms were an extremely useful tool which were sensational when Napier and others invented and improved them during the 17th century. They were a very important tool for those mathematicians and scientists who were in the process of developing 'the scientific method'.

    I agree. If the point is to learn the underlying math and not rely on a calculator then what are we using lookup tables for? That's no different from using a calculator. Here is how you can actually do the work by hand. First, to calculate ln(2.1) solve for u such that 2.1 = (1 + u)/(1 - u). The formula is u = (2.1 - 1)/(2.1 + 1) = 11/31. Then use the series expansion ln(2.1) = ln((1 + u)/(1 - u)) = 2(u + u^3/3 + u^5/5 + ... + u^(2n-1)/(2n-1) + ...) Then, to calculate e^2.50032 you can use the famous series e^x = 1 + x + x^2/2 + x^3/6 + ... + x^n/n! + ... By the way, the whole point of using base e is that we get these lovely series expansions. I don't know why base e was used in the video since the log table ended being in base 10.

    If you can't use logarithms, use the hint from the beginning of the video. 4^.4 = 4^(2/5) = 16^(1/5) 4th root of 16 is 2, so the 5th root is going to be less than that. Guess 1.7, take it to the 5th power and see what you get - too low. Repeat with 1.8, too high. Guess again with 1.75 - high but better. 1.74 is close and you only need a little more. Keep it for as long or as much precision as you need. Or, get a calculator. By the time you need to solve things like 4^.4 you're going to need one.
