Exponent. So 23^3 would be 23 cubed

Exponent. For example, 2^2 is two squared. The first number is the base, the second is the power it's raised to.

it means "raised to the exponent of", e.g. 4^3 means 4 raised to the exponent of 3.

^ takes the number to a certain power - for instance, c2^3 would take the value in cell c2 to the third power.
