/**
 * @file
 * @brief C++ Program for Modular Exponentiation Iteratively.
 * @details The task is to calculate the value of an integer a raised to an
 * integer exponent b under modulo c.
 * @note The time complexity of this approach is O(log b).
 *
 * Example:
 * (4^3) % 5 (where ^ stands for exponentiation and % for modulo)
 * (4*4*4) % 5
 * (4 % 5) * ( (4*4) % 5 )
 * 4 * (16 % 5)
 * 4 * 1
 * 4
 * We can also verify the result as 4^3 is 64 and 64 modulo 5 is 4
