Hey Chander, try typing Math.Pow(x,y) x being the number and y being the power. ---

Hello [Chander Gupta](http://dynamobim.org/forums/users/scdaitscdaarchitects-com/ "View Chander Gupta's profile"), All Math operations in Dynamo need to be used by writing Math. and method which you want to use. Thanks, Ritesh ---

Hello [Chander Gupta](http://dynamobim.org/forums/users/scdaitscdaarchitects-com/ "View Chander Gupta's profile"), One suggestion, in your graph you have written X and Y in separate CBN and then connected to formula written in CBN. Actually you dont have to create X and Y, you can directly pass output of Range expression (1…10…1 and 1…20…2) to your CBN where you have written Formula. Keep using Dynamo, if stuck we are here to help you. 🙂 Thanks, Ritesh ---

Oh yes… x & y CBN is redundent. Thanks.   ---
