Bash program to find A to the power B?

Here we will see how to get the number A raise to the power B using bash script. The logic is very simple. We have to use the ‘**’ operator or power operator to do this. Let us see the following program to understand the concept clearly.

Example

#!/bin/bash
# GNU bash Script
a=5
b=6
echo "$(($a ** $b))"
