# --description--
The hyperexponentiation or tetration of a number a by a positive integer b, denoted by a↑↑b or ba, is recursively defined by:
a↑↑1 = a,
a↑↑(k+1) = a(a↑↑k).
Thus we have e.g. 3↑↑2 = 33 = 27, hence 3↑↑3 = 327 = 7625597484987 and 3↑↑4 is roughly 103.6383346400240996\*10^12. Find the last 8 digits of 1777↑↑1855.
# --hints--
`euler188()` should return 95962097.
```js
assert.strictEqual(euler188(), 95962097);
```
# --seed--
## --seed-contents--
```js
function euler188() {
return true;
}
euler188();
```
# --solutions--
```js
// solution required
```
