How to calculate power for large numbers in Scala

Answer 1

object LargePowerCalculator {
  def calculateLargeNumbersPower(base: BigInt, exponent: Int): BigInt = {
    base.pow(exponent)
  }

  def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {
    val exponents = List(15, 100)
    for (n <- exponents) {
      val power = calculateLargeNumbersPower(BigInt(2), n)
      println(s"2^$n = $power")
    }
  }
}



/*
run:
 
^15 = 32768
2^100 = 1267650600228229401496703205376
