一看到這種題目，就想到高精度算法，Java的大數(shù)。
此舉確實(shí)流氓了一點(diǎn)，不過確實(shí)過了，鄙人的第一題SGU啊，不許打擊。
過段時(shí)間看看能不能寫出 (C++ Edition) ,啥也別說了，上代碼。

import java.math.*;
import java.util.*;

public class Solution
{
   public static void main(String[] args)
   {
      Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
      int a = in.nextInt();
      int b = in.nextInt();
      
      BigInteger A=BigInteger.valueOf(a);
      BigInteger B=BigInteger.valueOf(b); // A^B
      BigInteger rA=BigInteger.valueOf(a);
      BigInteger rB=BigInteger.valueOf(b); // store the result after computing
      
      for(int i=1; i<b; i++) // just b-1 times
          rA=rA.multiply(A);
      for(int i=1; i<a; i++)    
          rB=rB.multiply(B);
      System.out.println(rA.subtract(rB)); // sub
   }
}

附《Core Java I》里關(guān)于 大數(shù)的簡單介紹，講的算比較清晰的了：
Big Numbers
If the precision of the basic integer and floating-point types is not sufficient, you can
turn to a couple of handy classes in the java.math package: BigInteger and BigDecimal. These
are classes for manipulating numbers with an arbitrarily long sequence of digits. The
BigInteger class implements arbitrary precision integer arithmetic, and BigDecimal does the
same for floating-point numbers.
Use the static valueOf method to turn an ordinary number into a big number:
BigInteger a = BigInteger.valueOf(100);
Unfortunately, you cannot use the familiar mathematical operators such as + and * to
combine big numbers. Instead, you must use methods such as add and multiply in the big
number classes.
BigInteger c = a.add(b); // c = a + b
BigInteger d = c.multiply(b.add(BigInteger.valueOf(2))); // d = c * (b + 2)
C++ NOTE: Unlike C++, Java has no programmable operator overloading. There was no way
for the programmer of the BigInteger class to redefine the + and * operators to give the add and
multiply operations of the BigInteger classes. The language designers did overload the + operator
to denote concatenation of strings. They chose not to overload other operators, and they
did not give Java programmers the opportunity to overload operators in their own classes.
Listing 3–6 shows a modification of the lottery odds program of Listing 3–5, updated to
work with big numbers. For example, if you are invited to participate in a lottery in
which you need to pick 60 numbers out of a possible 490 numbers, then this program
will tell you that your odds are 1 in 7163958434619955574151162225400929334117176
12789263493493351 013459481104668848. Good luck!
The program in Listing 3–5 computed the statement
lotteryOdds = lotteryOdds * (n - i + 1) / i;
When big numbers are used, the equivalent statement becomes
lotteryOdds = lotteryOdds.multiply(BigInteger.valueOf(n - i + 1)).divide(BigInteger.valueOf(i));

java.math.BigInteger

? BigInteger add(BigInteger other)
? BigInteger subtract(BigInteger other)
? BigInteger multiply(BigInteger other)
? BigInteger divide(BigInteger other)
? BigInteger mod(BigInteger other)
returns the sum, difference, product, quotient, and remainder of this big integer and
other.
? int compareTo(BigInteger other)
returns 0 if this big integer equals other, a negative result if this big integer is less
than other, and a positive result otherwise.
? static BigInteger valueOf(long x)
returns a big integer whose value equals x.
? BigDecimal add(BigDecimal other)
? BigDecimal subtract(BigDecimal other)
? BigDecimal multiply(BigDecimal other)
? BigDecimal divide(BigDecimal other, RoundingMode mode) 5.0
returns the sum, difference, product, or quotient of this big decimal and other.
To compute the quotient, you must supply a rounding mode. The mode
RoundingMode.HALF_UP is the rounding mode that you learned in school (i.e., round
down digits 0 . . . 4, round up digits 5 . . . 9). It is appropriate for routine
calculations. See the API documentation for other rounding modes.
? int compareTo(BigDecimal other)
returns 0 if this big decimal equals other, a negative result if this big decimal is less
than other, and a positive result otherwise.
? static BigDecimal valueOf(long x)
? static BigDecimal valueOf(long x, int scale)
returns a big decimal whose value equals x or x /10scale.
