when not to use pow in c++ code example

Example 1: pow c++

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
  double base, exponent, result;		
  base = 3.4;	
  exponent = 4.4;	
  result = pow(base, exponent);		
  cout << base << "^" << exponent << " = " << result;		
  return 0;
}

Example 2: c++ power

/* pow example */
#include <stdio.h>      /* printf */
#include <math.h>       /* pow */

int main ()
{
  printf ("7 ^ 3 = %f\n", pow (7.0, 3.0) );
  printf ("4.73 ^ 12 = %f\n", pow (4.73, 12.0) );
  printf ("32.01 ^ 1.54 = %f\n", pow (32.01, 1.54) );
  return 0;
}
