Creating a Java ME Math.pow() Method
Mathematical functions that are second nature to the desktop programmer may be off-limits in the resource-constrained Java ME environment. For example, while ME now supports floats and doubles, its Math class doesn't offer a pow() function for computing exponents. In this article, Lawrence Fulton and Daniel Williams show how to use approximation techniques to get "good enough" results, even with negative and fractional exponents. Nov. 6, 2007
