Python Program - Compute the Power of a Number

Here's a Python program to compute the power of a number using a loop:

base = int(input("Enter the base number: "))
exponent = int(input("Enter the exponent: "))
result = 1

for i in range(exponent):
    result *= base

print(f"{base} raised to the power of {exponent} is: {result}")

This program takes input for the base and exponent, initializes the result variable to 1, and uses a loop to multiply the base by itself exponent number of times. Finally, it prints the result.

Here's an example output for base=2 and exponent=5:

Enter the base number: 2
Enter the exponent: 5
2 raised to the power of 5 is: 32

Note: Python also has a built-in pow() function that can be used to compute the power of a number. For example: result = pow(base, exponent) would achieve the same result as the above program.
