Dear forum,
some weeks ago there was a discussion about GAP4 in windows 95.
One of the curiosities was the caret ( ^) which could not be used.
I told then that in windows NT GAP4 runs without problems, especially with
the caret.
But that was a bit too early, look the power with a.

gap> a:=5;
5
gap> 2^+;
-153
But you can avoid the trouble using ( )

gap> 2^(a);
32

Best wishes
K.Ewald
