Can someone please explain what 'Exponentiation' means when using Python.
I was on CodeAcademy and it wasn't correctly explained and as I am half way through the course, I really need to know what this means. I have Google'd this but I can't seem to find the answer I need!
All that was said in the explanation of Exponentiation in the Python course was something like:
2 ** 3 = x
5 ** 2 = x
holy_hand_grendade = 3
print holy_hand_grendade

Stuff like this doesn't really get to me, but I can't seem to get my head around this one!

Please help, it would be much appreciated.
