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.

另一个实现(在Java中)。可能不是最有效的解决方案，但迭代次数与指数解相同。

public static long pow(long base, long exp){        
    if(exp ==0){
        return 1;
    }
    if(exp ==1){
        return base;
    }

    if(exp % 2 == 0){
        long half = pow(base, exp/2);
        return half * half;
    }else{
        long half = pow(base, (exp -1)/2);
        return base * half * half;
    }       
}

如果要取2的a次方。最快的方法是按幂位移位。

2 ** 3 == 1 << 3 == 8
2 ** 30 == 1 << 30 == 1073741824 (A Gigabyte)

迟到的人:

下面是一个尽可能处理y < 0的解。

It uses a result of intmax_t for maximum range. There is no provision for answers that do not fit in intmax_t. powjii(0, 0) --> 1 which is a common result for this case. pow(0,negative), another undefined result, returns INTMAX_MAX intmax_t powjii(int x, int y) { if (y < 0) { switch (x) { case 0: return INTMAX_MAX; case 1: return 1; case -1: return y % 2 ? -1 : 1; } return 0; } intmax_t z = 1; intmax_t base = x; for (;;) { if (y % 2) { z *= base; } y /= 2; if (y == 0) { break; } base *= base; } return z; }

这段代码使用了一个永久循环for(;;)，以避免在其他循环解决方案中常见的最终基数*=基数。这个乘法是1)不需要的，2)可能是int*int溢出，也就是UB。

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。
