title: Is there an exponent operator in C#?
body: <p>For example, does an operator exist to handle this?</p>
  
  <pre><code>float Result, Number1, Number2;
  
  Number1 = 2;
  Number2 = 2;
  
  Result = Number1 (operator) Number2;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In the past the <code>^</code> operator has served as an exponential operator in other languages, but in C# it is a bit-wise operator.</p>
  
  <p>Do I have to write a loop or include another namespace to handle exponential operations? If so, how do I handle exponential operations using non-integers?</p>
