JAVA "to the power of"

Sup /prog/?

I know this is a retarded question, but I need some help with a method I need to write. The method parameters are a double and an int (a and b, respectively)

I need to write a for loop in the method that raises a (the double) to the power of b (the int)

How the fuck do I do this?? Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but I'm burnt out from finals

All the examples in this thread are needlessly obfuscated.


def pow(a,b):
    c=1
    while b:
        if b%2:c*=a
        a*=a
        b//=2
    return c
