Code Overview

1. Header Files and Namespace:

• <iostream> is included for input and output operations.
• <string> is included for potential future use (not used in this program).
• using namespace std; allows the use of standard functions without prefixing them with std::.

2. User Input Function (ReadNumber)

• Prompts the user to enter a base number.
• Reads and returns the entered value as an integer.

3. User Input Function (ReadPower)

• Prompts the user to enter an exponent (power).
• Reads and returns the entered value as an integer.

4. Power Calculation Function (PowerOfM)

• Takes a base number and exponent as input.
• If the exponent is 0, it returns 1 (since any number raised to 0 is always 1).
• Uses a for loop to compute the power by repeated multiplication:
• P= N^M
• Returns the computed power value.

5. Program Execution (main())

• Calls ReadNumber() to get user input for the base.
• Calls ReadPower() to get user input for the exponent.
• Calls PowerOfM() to compute the power.
• Prints the result.
• Returns 0 to indicate successful execution.
