   @grishka xor would definitely be a word. For arbitrary power of, not sure. But I do want to use ² and ³ for square and cube at the very least

     @vikingkong @grishka well, *I* also type it, but the world seems to be moving in the direction of generating it from chat commands

     @nikitonsky@mastodon.online @grishka@friends.grishka.me All these |x| for absolute values or x² or x³ for squares and cubes definitely look nice, but are pretty uncomfortable to type in. So I would prefer good old abs(x) and pow(x,n).
