How do I calculate exponent equations?

I am trying to set up a condition in my form that calculates a number raised to the power of another. I cannot figure out how to get the exp() or pow() equations to work in that way, and I'm not sure if that is even what they do.

ex.

two to the power of three = 2^3 = 2x2x2 = 8

However, if I ask my form to calculate 2pow(3) or 2exp(3), I do not get 8 as the output in the selected field. 

How do I use the functions in the field calculator to get the proper answer for an exponent equation like this?

Thanks, 

Kyle

To calculate exponent equations, you need to use pow() math function and set your calculation like this.
