An integer exponent is a positive or negative whole number used to represent the number of times a base number is multiplied by itself.
For example, in the expression 2^3, the base number is 2 and the integer exponent is 3. This means that 2 is multiplied by itself 3 times: 2 * 2 * 2 = 8.
In another example, in the expression 5^-2, the base number is 5 and the integer exponent is -2. This means that 5 is divided by itself 2 times: 1 / (5 * 5) = 0.04.
