Product of vector elements where the vector has a large size

1 view (last 30 days)
I want to find the nth root of a product for all elements of a vector V having a large size (1064 elements) given as follows.
However, it gives me the answer Inf. Is there any alternative way in matlab to calculate the nth root of the product, where n=length(V)? Thanks.
