Peter,
Here's a subroutine that handles positive, integer exponents.
This compiled and worked as an IND seq block, so you can test it out.

Regards,
David

Hi List
    Does anyone know how to do a power function x^y in HLBL?

    Similar to the pow(x,y) call under C

    or CALCA block EXP x y



Thank you,
