Power Function

Create a function called compute_power(base, exponent), which recieves two parameters: a floating point value representing the base of the power, and an integer representing the exponent. Your function should return a floating point value representing the result of raising the base to the specified exponent. Your function should not use the ** operator.

Recall that exponentiation is:

$$b^n = \underbrace{b \times b \times \ldots \times b}_{n}$$

Where there are $n$ occurances of $b$ in the terms on the right hand side of the equation.
