Hmmmm.... 
$ cat zero.c
#include <stdio.h>

int
main() {
    printf("0 ** 0 == %d\n", 0 ^ 0);

    Use math 
    /* gcc -o zero zero.c -lm */

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h> 

int main() {

   int i = 0;
   int j = 0;
   int k;    
    
   k = pow(i,j);
  printf("%d\n",k);
}

    printf("0 ** 0 == %d\n", 0 ^ 0);
    That's the xor operator.
