Default powers to negative numbers

Bernie:
I believe that should be =ASIN(value)*180/PI()
That's why I always use =DEGREES(ASIN(value))
best wishes

Dave,

=ASIN(value) (arc-sine)

The return is in radians, not degrees. In degrees:

=ASIN(value)*360/PI()

For negative powers, for example,

=2^(-3)
