pow()
Function in Builtins
pow(a, b): a raised to the power b, component-wise.
import { pow } from 'typeshade'
The signature, the description and the examples come from the compiler's own source at commit 26de7be8.
Syntax
function pow<K extends FloatKey>(a: ReadonlyNode<K>, b: NoInfer<ArithArg<K>>): Node<K>;function pow(a: number, b: ReadonlyNode<'f32'>): Node<'f32'>;Parameters
aReadonlyNode<K>bNoInfer<ArithArg<K>>
Return value
Node<K>
Description
A JS number b lifts to the
kind of a, so pow(z, 4) emits pow(z, 4.0) for an f32 base. WGSL requires a and b
to have the same type, so a vector a needs a vector b; a scalar b against a vector
a passes the type check here and is rejected by the WGSL compiler.
