41. Intuitively you can think of exponentiation with an irrational exponent as a limit process like that. 42. The reason is that these two modular exponentiations both use a smaller exponent and a smaller modulus. 43. In symbols, given base, exponent, and modulus, the modular exponentiation is : ). 44. Rcon is what the Rijndael documentation calls the exponentiation of 2 to a user-specified value. 45. :: A common blunder among people first learning this stuff is that exponentiation distributes over addition. 46. In order to avoid any trouble with negative variances, the exponentiation of the parameter is suggested. 47. Translations and rotations cannot be done this way, but are related to a twist by exponentiation . 48. See Exponentiation # Real powers . talk ) 12 : 53, 27 October 2009 ( UTC) 49. There are three usual operations on ordinals : addition, multiplication, and ( ordinal ) exponentiation . 50. Do you notice that this " commutative exponentiation " shares several properties with addition and multiplication ??
