Question: " &^ " isn't working :S

I'm attempting to exponentiate a really large number to a anther really large number and using only "^" will give me an overflow error. in my assignment it says to use " &^", but when i type this in, it attempts to exponentiate the ampersand symbol. I'm currently running on Maple 11... i think my problem is i don't know how to use &^ -thank you
