cirq.pow

Returns val**factor of the given value, if defined.

cirq.pow(
    val: Any, exponent: Any, default: Any = RaiseTypeErrorIfNotProvided
) -> Any

Values define an extrapolation by defining a pow(self, exponent) method. Note that the method may return NotImplemented to indicate a particular extrapolation can't be done.

Args
`val`	The value or iterable of values to invert.
`exponent`	The extrapolation factor. For example, if this is 0.5 and val is a gate then the caller is asking for a square root of the gate.
`default`	Determines the fallback behavior when `val` doesn't have an extrapolation defined. If `default` is not set and that occurs, a TypeError is raised instead.

Returns
If `val` has a pow method that returns something besides NotImplemented, that result is returned. Otherwise, if a default value was specified, the default value is returned.

Raises
`TypeError`	`val` doesn't have a pow method (or that method returned NotImplemented) and no `default` value was specified.
