Perhaps I should reclarify. For those who don't know, StatLib stores numbers as strings, so I can't use ordinary qbasic math functions to get results, because the whole point of someone using StatLib would be when they have a problem like 3862389762387x10^23.37154178217812786 etc. So I can work out 10^23, but the .37154... is the tricky part. So what I need is a way to work out 10 to the power of a decimal without using any inbuilt qb functions. What you can use is: + - */ and any other function that can be built from those operators.

So TBBQ has it sort of right. I can't calculate decimal parts of powers, but I need to be able to without using logs. Or, if using logs is the only way, then what is the formula for log?
