- using variable in the "pow" function
using variable in the "pow" function
I'm trying to figure out what is wrong with this:
static_cast<int>((pow(x, counter+1)) % 10)
it says "more than one instance of overloaded function "pow" matches the argument list"
static_cast<int>((pow(x, counter+1)) % 10)
it says "more than one instance of overloaded function "pow" matches the argument list"

the format looks okay. from what I found on this web page:
http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/typecasting/
what are your x and counter vars declarations/assigns? can you paste more?
trying to get an idea of what the remainder of the pow function divided by 10 is.

What are types of x and counter?
Also you have extra closing bracket in the end. I assume it's related to the first (unshown) part of your expression.

static_cast<int>(pow(x, counter+1) % 10) may be enough.
didn't think to contest a set of ()

pow(x, counter+1) % 10 and % operator cannot be applied to floating point value returned by pow. So OP had it right: converting result of pow() to int, then calculating modulus.Topic archived. No new replies allowed.
