## Example

In this example, we will find the value of a base number raised to power specified and print it in the console.

### Steps

1. Drag a `button` component into the canvas and open the `Action` tab. Select the `press` event of the button and drag the `Log.write` function to the event flow.
2. Call the function `Math.power` inside the `Log.write` function.
3. Enter the values for the base and the power.
