用C语言求一个整数的幂的最有效方法是什么?

// 2^3
pow(2,3) == 8

// 5^5
pow(5,5) == 3125

当前回答

int pow( int base, int exponent)

{   // Does not work for negative exponents. (But that would be leaving the range of int) 
    if (exponent == 0) return 1;  // base case;
    int temp = pow(base, exponent/2);
    if (exponent % 2 == 0)
        return temp * temp; 
    else
        return (base * temp * temp);
}

我用递归,如果exp是偶数,5^10 =25^5。

int pow(float base,float exp){
   if (exp==0)return 1;
   else if(exp>0&&exp%2==0){
      return pow(base*base,exp/2);
   }else if (exp>0&&exp%2!=0){
      return base*pow(base,exp-1);
   }
}
int pow( int base, int exponent)

{   // Does not work for negative exponents. (But that would be leaving the range of int) 
    if (exponent == 0) return 1;  // base case;
    int temp = pow(base, exponent/2);
    if (exponent % 2 == 0)
        return temp * temp; 
    else
        return (base * temp * temp);
}
int pow(int const x, unsigned const e) noexcept
{
  return !e ? 1 : 1 == e ? x : (e % 2 ? x : 1) * pow(x * x, e / 2);
  //return !e ? 1 : 1 == e ? x : (((x ^ 1) & -(e % 2)) ^ 1) * pow(x * x, e / 2);
}

是的,它是递归的,但是一个好的优化编译器会优化递归。

下面是Java中的方法

private int ipow(int base, int exp)
{
    int result = 1;
    while (exp != 0)
    {
        if ((exp & 1) == 1)
            result *= base;
        exp >>= 1;
        base *= base;
    }

    return result;
}

除了Elias的答案,当使用有符号整数实现时,会导致未定义行为,当使用无符号整数实现时,会导致高输入的不正确值,

下面是平方求幂的修改版本,它也适用于有符号整数类型,并且不会给出错误的值:

#include <stdint.h>

#define SQRT_INT64_MAX (INT64_C(0xB504F333))

int64_t alx_pow_s64 (int64_t base, uint8_t exp)
{
    int_fast64_t    base_;
    int_fast64_t    result;

    base_   = base;

    if (base_ == 1)
        return  1;
    if (!exp)
        return  1;
    if (!base_)
        return  0;

    result  = 1;
    if (exp & 1)
        result *= base_;
    exp >>= 1;
    while (exp) {
        if (base_ > SQRT_INT64_MAX)
            return  0;
        base_ *= base_;
        if (exp & 1)
            result *= base_;
        exp >>= 1;
    }

    return  result;
}

使用该函数的注意事项:

(1 ** N) == 1
(N ** 0) == 1
(0 ** 0) == 1
(0 ** N) == 0

如果将发生任何溢出或换行,则返回0;

I used int64_t, but any width (signed or unsigned) can be used with little modification. However, if you need to use a non-fixed-width integer type, you will need to change SQRT_INT64_MAX by (int)sqrt(INT_MAX) (in the case of using int) or something similar, which should be optimized, but it is uglier, and not a C constant expression. Also casting the result of sqrt() to an int is not very good because of floating point precission in case of a perfect square, but as I don't know of any implementation where INT_MAX -or the maximum of any type- is a perfect square, you can live with that.
