The ** op is not exponentiation. It is just muplication, but returns the high-order 16-bits instead of the normal low-order 16. Combined with the normal * op, you can get the full 32-bit result that could come from multiplying two 16-bit numbers. As far as I know, PBASIC doesn't have an exponentiation op.
