Wait a minute, I just changed my mind. Actually since `0.pow(0)` is mathematically undefined. See WolframAlpha for references: https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=0%5E0 `0.pow(0, 1)` should be undefined too, so do `1.pow(0, 1)`. Because inside the `% 1` space, `1 == 0` and `12 == 0` too. ---------------------------------------- Bug #17257: Integer#pow(0, 1) returns 1, which is incorrect https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17257#change-87977 * Author: universato (Yoshimine Sato) * Status: Assigned * Priority: Normal * Assignee: mrkn (Kenta Murata) * Backport: 2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- Ruby 2.5.8, 2.6.6, 2.7.1 ```ruby p -1.pow(0, 1) #=> 1 p 0.pow(0, 1) #=> 1 p 1.pow(0, 1) #=> 1 p 1234567890.pow(0, 1) #=> 1 ``` These return values should be 0.
