MySql POWER() Function Example Using Java Servlet

In this tutorial you will learn about how to use power() function in math function of mysql using servlet.

In MySql POWER() and POW() are the synonym functions that gives the value after calculating the number raised to the power of the another number that is calculating xy.

Syntax :

power(bs, exp);

Here the argument 'bs' is a base number and the argument 'exp' is an exponent value.

Now, since I have to use this function in java servlet program, therefore I have created a java servlet class named MysqlPowerServlet which extends the HttpServlet class. In the body of class I overridden the method doGet() and created an objects of HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse into its parameter. Inside the doGet() method first I set the mime type that in which format the browser will show the output. In the next line I used the getWriter() method of ServletResponse interface with the object of HttpServletResponse. HttpServletResponse interface extends this method from the ServletResponse. In Next step I am taking inputs using the getParameter() method of ServletRequest with the object of HttpServletRequest. In continue we have to establish a connection between java code and database system. So, since I am using Mysql in the example given below therefore, I am loading the driver of mysql and make a connection by using the getConnection() method of DriverManager class. It returns a Connection. Further I passed the query "SELECT Power("+bs+","+pw+")"; (Here 'bs' and 'pw' are variables that stores the value given by the user in their respective textfields.) into the parameter of prepareStatement() method of Connection interface which gives an object of PreparedStatement interface. In the next line I used the executeQuery() method of PreparedStatement interface which returns a ResultSet object that holds the result of query. At last I have extracted the result from the ResultSet object.

Example :
