^2 Block

Is it possible for Scratch to make a ^2 block? It would look like this:
((2)  [ ^2 v]) 
This would be helpful because people could use that instead of
((2) * (2))

If they say the sky's the limit, then why are there footprints on the moon?

I hope this helps! If you need any further, clarification, just ask!

I think it would be better if it was a “powers” block which let you put in a custom number to put powers of numbers.

If you want a block that specifically squares the number:
The workaround is very simple and straightforward, and literally takes less than 5 seconds. No support.

If you want a block that can raise the number to any power, not just to the power of 2:
Full support, but it's a duplicate.

I agree.

In that case, this topic should be closed to keep the discussion all in one place.

Thanks for the link! It does look like this is a duplicate topic so I'll close it to keep the conversation all in one place.

Please use the existing topic in the link above.
