+Implement pow(x, n), which calculates x raised to the power n (xn).
+
+Example 1:
+
+Input: 2.00000, 10
+Output: 1024.00000
+Example 2:
+
+Input: 2.10000, 3
+Output: 9.26100
+Example 3:
+
+Input: 2.00000, -2
+Output: 0.25000
+Explanation: 2-2 = 1/22 = 1/4 = 0.25
+Note:
+
+-100.0 < x < 100.0
+n is a 32-bit signed integer, within the range [−231, 231 − 1]
