Catch Arguments Passed in the Wrong Order When Calling a Function

Catch Arguments Passed in the Wrong Order When Calling a Function

---

Problem Explanation

function raiseToPower(b, e) {
  return Math.pow(b, e);
}

• The above function is used to raise the base number b to the power of the exponent e.
• The function must be called specifically with variables in the correct order. Otherwise the function will mix up both variables and return an undesired answer.
• Make sure the variable power is implementing the raiseToPower function correctly.

Solutions

Solution 1 (Click to Show/Hide)

function raiseToPower(b, e) {
  return Math.pow(b, e);
}

let base = 2;
let exp = 3;
let power = raiseToPower(base, exp);
console.log(power);
