C programming, Compute the exponentiation of a given number.

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {

    int base, exp;

    long double result = 1.0;

    printf("Enter a base number: ");

    scanf("%d", &base);

    printf("Enter an exponent: ");

    scanf("%d", &exp);

    while (exp != 0) {

        result *= base;

        --exp;

    }

    printf("Answer = %.0Lf", result);

    return 0;

}
