Computes the value of the first argument raised to the value of the second argument. |
Numeric literal example:
derive type:single value: POW(10,3) |
Output: Generates a column containing the value of 10 3, which is 1000.
Column reference example:
derive type:single value: POW(MyValue,2) as: 'sqred_MyValue' |
Output: Generates the new sqred_myValue column containing the value of the MyValue column raised to the power of 2 (squared).
derive type:single value: POW(base_numeric_value, exp_numeric_value) |
