Confirm method of raising number to a power

Please confirm that the usual Basic expression "x^y" is not valid in Panoramic language for raising x to power y.
For example 2^3 = 8.

Can I assume that the normal rules of arithmetic apply otherwise, in order of execution:
1st Power
2nd Mult/Div
4th Plus/Minus
5th As controlled by brackets (((())))

I am writing this from memory, having just downloading Pan.. I haven't written a basic program for a long time, and just want to have some fun.

Hello jayesjay

In PANORAMIC, the syntax for a^b is: POWER(a,b)

Code:

Dim a,b
a = 2 : b = 3
print power(a,b)

If the French language is not an obstacle for you, I invite you on the French FORUM. It is here
It is much more active than the English FORUM.

Please excuse my bad English.  

Good programming with PANORAMIC.
