Roots and powers playing nicely together...

You are correct. But my point was that if you can do x ^ (1/100 = .01) you could do x ^ (3/100 = .03) = (x^.01) * (x^.01) * (x^.01)

To show Pete that doing x ^ (.0y) calculations are possible (just not practical but we know already string math is the definition of NOT practical).
