What are you talking about?!

Unless you mean to recommend that Excel users stop using the ^ operator and
use the POWER function instead, Excel and C don't work the same. C lacks an
exponentiation operator. It includes a function named pow in its standard
library. It has a ^ operator, but it's bitwise XOR.
