How do I Write a C program called powers that prints a table of powers. It will take two arguments. The first is the base and the second is the exponent of the largest power to print.

Sample runs:

Your program must include a function

long power(int base, int exp) {

...

}

that computes base raised to the exponent power. For example power(2, 4) = 16. The function must compute and return the power. It must use repeated multiplication to compute the power. In particular, it may not use the functions pow, log, or exp or their variations.

The power function will compute the power NOT PRINT IT! The main function will do all of the printing.

Your program must produce exactly the same format as the sample runs.
