> This page covers the **Power node** of the Scene Nodes system in **Cinema 4D**. It raises a base to an exponent — the foundation of gamma-style curves and nonlinear falloffs in node math.

This Node can be used to exponentiate the Base value, i.e., multiply it by itself the number of times defined in the Exponent value. If Base is set to 5 and Exponent to 2, 5 to the power of 2 will be calculated, i.e., 5\*5 = 25.
