Introduction

In this blog, we'll delve into the basics of the Pi and Power functions in PowerApps, making complex math simple. With easy-to-understand examples, you'll uncover the power of these functions

Pi() Function

Returns the mathematical constant π (pi), which is approximately equal to 3.141592653589793.

The Pi() function is used to retrieve the value of pi for mathematical calculations in PowerApps.

Syntax

Pi()

Example

Note. Pi functions does not take any user input if you try to it will give you the error .

Error example

Power() Function

• The Power() function in PowerApps is used for exponentiation, meaning it raises a specified base number to a specified exponent power.
• When you want to quickly multiply a number by itself a certain number of times, the Power function saves you from doing it manually. It's like a shortcut for multiplyin
• The function needs two things: the base (the starting number) and the exponent (how many times to multiply the base by itself).
