Multiply powers integers #153

Closed sebastianpantin closed 7 years ago

sebastianpantin commented 7 years ago

Better pedagogical approach for multiplication of powers.

sebastianpantin commented 7 years ago

Pretty much it takes calculations such as 10^2 * 10^3 and returns a Node with the same substeps as it does when it calculates x^2 * x^3

these pull requests are super exciting! I'm in the middle of exam studying time, so I'm a bit slower on looking at this than I want to be, but I should be able to do a pass in the next day or two :D

(it's near the top of my list of random stuff to do)

sebastianpantin commented 7 years ago

No hurry! Good luck with your exams :D

sebastianpantin commented 7 years ago

For the .idea and weird spaces and stuff, thats probably just my WebStorm acting weird. I will fix that!

sebastianpantin commented 7 years ago

I will take a look at it in more detail in the next few days! Now i have to sleep haha, its 02.30 here.. But great comments! So easy to miss things with so much code.

evykassirer commented 7 years ago

Good night :)

Glad they were helpful!

evykassirer commented 7 years ago

I think it's pretty much ready to go!! Because I've looked at it for so long and it's a big change, @aliang8 do you think you could take a look before we merge?

evykassirer commented 7 years ago

🎉 thanks for your patience getting this in tip top shape! looking forward to getting the division one in too - probably will be a lot less work haha

sebastianpantin commented 7 years ago

No problem! Lots of the things are the same with division so it should be quick! I Will make some changes this weekend and push it 😄
