pow (Math.pow method)
public static pow(x:Number, y:Number) : Number
Computes and returns x to the power of y.
Parameters
x:Number - A number to be raised to a power.
y:Number - A number specifying a power the parameter x is raised to.
Returns
Number - A number.
Example
The following example uses Math.pow and Math.sqrt to calculate the length of a line.
this.createEmptyMovieClip("canvas_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
var mouseListener:Object = new Object();
mouseListener.onMouseDown = function() {
this.origX = _xmouse;
this.origY = _ymouse;
};
mouseListener.onMouseUp = function() {
this.newX = _xmouse;
this.newY = _ymouse;
var minY = Math.min(this.origY, this.newY);
var nextDepth:Number = canvas_mc.getNextHighestDepth();
var line_mc:MovieClip =
canvas_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("line"+nextDepth+"_mc", nextDepth);
line_mc.moveTo(this.origX, this.origY);
