#Defining a function to raise the firs         


        

Answer 1

The issue is that the python input() function was only ready to accept one parameter - the prompt string, but you passed in three. To solve this issue, you just need to combine all three pieces into one.

You can use the % operator to format string:

y = int(input("What power would you like to raise %d to?\n" %x,))

Or use the new way:

y = int(input("What power would you like to raise {0} to?\n".format(x)))
