If your calculator cannot handle large numbers such this one, this is what you do to get the answer:

3^2010. Take the log(base 10) of 3=0.477121. Then multiply it by the exponent thus: .477121 X 2010=959.01321. The integer part is the power of 10. Subtract it from the number thus:959.01321 - 959=.01321. Finally you raise 10^.01321=1.0321 X 10^959, which is the answer.
