Java Guava | IntMath.checkedPow(int b, int k) method with Examples

Last Updated : 01 Feb, 2019

checkedPow(int b, int k) is a method of Guava's IntMath Class which accepts two parameters b and k and is used to find the k-th power of b. Syntax:

public static int checkedPow(int b, int k)

Parameters: The method accepts two parameters, b and k. The parameter b is called base which is raised to the k-th power. Return Value: This method returns the k-th power of b. Exceptions: The method checkedPow(int b, int k) throws ArithmeticException if the k-th power of b overflows in signed int arithmetic. Below examples illustrate the implementation of the above method: Example 1:

Java

// Java code to show implementation of
// checkedPow(int b, int k) method of
// Guava's IntMath class

import java.math.RoundingMode;
import com.google.common.math.IntMath;

class GFG {

    // Driver code
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        int b1 = 5;
        int k1 = 7;

        // Using checkedPow(int b, int k) method
        // of Guava's IntMath class
        int ans1 = IntMath.checkedPow(b1, k1);

        System.out.println(b1 + " to the "
                           + k1 + "th power is: "
                           + ans1);

        int b2 = 19;
        int k2 = 4;

        // Using checkedPow(int b, int k) method
        // of Guava's IntMath class
        int ans2 = IntMath.checkedPow(b2, k2);

        System.out.println(b2 + " to the " + k2
                           + "th power is: "
                           + ans2);
    }
}

Output:

5 to the 7th power is: 78125
19 to the 4th power is: 130321

Example 2:

Java

// Java code to show implementation of
// checkedPow(int b, int k) method of
// Guava's IntMath class

import java.math.RoundingMode;
import com.google.common.math.IntMath;

class GFG {

    static int findPow(int b, int k)
    {
        try {

            // Using checkedPow(int b, int k) method of
            // Guava's IntMath class
            // This should raise "ArithmeticException" as
            // b to the kth power overflows in
            // signed int arithmetic
            int ans = IntMath.checkedPow(b, k);

            // Return the answer
            return ans;
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println(e);
            return -1;
        }
    }

    // Driver code
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        int b = 20;
        int k = 25;

        try {

            // Function calling
            findPow(b, k);
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println(e);
        }
    }
}
