MODULUS MATH!

Scientist Oluwanifemi needs our help! She’s been exploring other galaxies and has been comparing how many planets they have to the nine that we have in our solar system (because even though it’s a dwarf planet, she wants to include Pluto). Can you write some code to help her calculate the total planets for the other galaxies?

What to Do

Use the exponentiation operator to print out the total number of planets the other galaxies have. To do this, take our total number of planets and raise it to the power of each galaxy’s magic number. Be sure to use the total_planets variable provided for your calculations!

total_planets = 9

Example Galaxy

In the Pentatopia galaxy, their magic number is 5. Write a print() function that prints out how many planets the Pentatopia galaxy has!

Sample Code

print(f"The Pentatopia galaxy has {write code to calculate what 9 to the power of 5 is} planets!")

Sample Output

The Pentatopia galaxy has 59049 planets!

In the Tripolia galaxy, their magic number is 3. Write a print() function that prints out how many planets the Tripolia galaxy has.

In the Deka galaxy, their magic number is 10. Write a print() function that prints out how many planets the Deka galaxy has.

In the Heptaton galaxy, their magic number is 7. Write a print() function that prints out how many planets the Heptaton galaxy has.

In the Oktopia galaxy, their magic number is 8. Write a print() function
