.. py:function:: power(base: int, exponent: int) -> float

   Calculate the power of a base raised to an exponent.

   >>> power(3, 4)
   81
   >>> power(2, 0)
   1
   >>> all(power(base, exponent) == pow(base, exponent)
   ...     for base in range(-10, 10) for exponent in range(10))
   True
   >>> power('a', 1)
   'a'
   >>> power('a', 2)
   Traceback (most recent call last):
       ...
   TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'str'
   >>> power('a', 'b')
   Traceback (most recent call last):
