No it's not. Sounds impossible!
Then again, I'm having to learn the rules of simplifying crap with negative exponents... WTF is with that? There's really no such thing as a negative exponent! (or could you give me a real-world example if there is?) These rules are made up and make no sense, wether I can do the problems 'properly' or not.

If you're telling me that X^-Nth = 1/X^Nth, then the reverse must be true and it sure as hell is not! You can actually calculate a real number for 1/X^Nth.


Just broke my personal record for number of consecutive days without dying!
