symbols for exponentiation

50 Views Asked by At

In thinking about this question on PLDI I wondered if there are any other mathematical symbols which represent exponentiation as an infix operator.

x pow y --> xy

Commonly used notations in programming are caret ^ (which often has other meanings relating to logic) and double star **.

Even better if there is a matching unicode symbol (though I haven't found any likely candiates looking through unicode tables).
