And in the .NET CLR, Microsoft has overloaded it to mean a pointer to an
object on the managed heap.  I'm really starting to hate their stupid
'language extensions'.

I thought the pow() manpage was pretty clear...

"The pow() functions compute x raised to the power y."

So pow(x, y) returns x ^ y.  Exponentiation just isn't one of the basic math
operators built into the language.
