I need to figure out five to the power of 999999.  I know it is crazy but I want the answer.  I'd much prefer the method/solution to the answer itself.  I have a Windows 10 Laptop, so, that's how I'd think it could be solved.

 

 

BTW:I don't have a graphical calculator and I tried doing it in Excel but it gives a math error for powers over 4 digits.

 

Would Matlab be able to do this?

 

 

Thanks to any answerers.    :)
