EXERCISE 136 : Perform basic operations using built-in
modules

Objectives

At the end of this exercise you shall be able to
• develop python programs to Perform basic operations using built-in modules.

Procedure

TASK 1: Math Module
Code:
import math
# Example 1: Square Root
number = 25

square_root = math.sqrt(number)
print(f”Square root of {number}: {square_root}”)
# Example 2: Power
base = 2

exponent = 3
power_result = math.pow(base, exponent)
print(f”{base} raised to the power of {exponent}: {power_result}”)
Explanation:

• This line imports the math module, which provides access to various mathematical functions and constants in
Python.

• In this section, the code calculates the square root of the number 25 using the sqrt() function from the math
module. The result is stored in the variable square_root, and then it is printed out with an f-string.

• Here, the code calculates 2 raised to the power of 3 using the pow() function from the math module. The result
is stored in the variable power_result, and then it is printed out with an f-string.
In summary, the code demonstrates how to use the sqrt() function to calculate square roots and the pow()
function to calculate powers with the help of the math module.
