-
-```
-git clone git@github.com:code4policy/<REPO-NAME>.git
-```

+14. Create a new branch from `main`. In the new branch, add two more functions, `square` and `cube`. both should take a single number as an argument and return the number raised to the appropriate power. 
 15. Make a function called `square_n_times` that takes two arguments, `number` and `n`. Have the function square the number `n` times and return the sum.
+16. PR the new branch to `main`. Your `calcluator.py` in `main` should now have functions for addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, squaring, cubing, and adding squares `n` times.

+### Tasks 
+1. create a new branch `js-calculator`
 2. inside that branch create a new file called `calculator.js`
 
 3. Write (in javascript) a program that defines four functions (multiply, add, subtract, and divide). These functions should not print anything, they should simply perform a mathematical operation on the two arguments and return the value.
