+
+<p>In Nyquist, 'power' is implemented as a Lisp function:</p>
+
+<pre class="example">
+(defun <font color="#0000CC">power</font> (x y)
+  (exp (* (log (float x)) y)))
+</pre>
+
+<h2>Description</h2>
+
+<p>The 'power' function returns 'x' raised to the 'y' power as a floating
+point number.</nobr>
+
+<h2>Examples</h2>
+
+<pre class="example">
+(power 2 8)   =&gt; 256
+(power 4 .5)  =&gt; 2.0
+</pre>
