Here are some examples:
2**4 = 2*2*2*2 = 16
5**3 = 5*5*5= 125

Exponentiation
Besides addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, Python also supports exponentiation, which is the raising of one number to the power of another. This operation is performed using two asterisks.
>>> 2**5
32
>>> 9 ** (1/2)
3.0
PLEASE ALSO READ COMMENTS SECTION OF THIS PAGE(link is given below), THAT WILL HELP TO UNDERSTAND.

Hey there 😃
When we say exponential, we are saying that we multiply a number multiple times.
2**2 is saying multiply 2 twice.
3**2 is saying multiply 3 twice.
2**12 is saying multiply 2 twelve times.
And so on...
base ** exponent
Multiply the <base> <exponent> number of times.
Hope that helps you 😃

// is the floor division symbol.
5 // 2 means how many 2's can you get in 5.
There are two 2's in 5.
Therefore, 5 // 2 = 2.

Simply put it means multiplying the number by itself. How many times you do that depends on the exponent.
