How to calculate power for large numbers in Kotlin

Answer 1

import java.math.BigInteger

fun calculateLargeNumbersPower(base: BigInteger, exponent: Int): BigInteger {
    return base.pow(exponent)
}

fun main() {
    val exponents = listOf(15, 100)
    
    for (n in exponents) {
        val power = calculateLargeNumbersPower(BigInteger.valueOf(2), n)
        println("2^$n = $power")
    }
}

 
  
/*
run:
 
2^15 = 32768
2^100 = 1267650600228229401496703205376
