Nothing. They are just alternative names for the same function. Unfortunately, some C maths libraries in the early days, used one form, while others the other. So CCS, offered both names.
If you look in math.h, you will see that the code for each is identical.
It seems rather 'silly' actually, since CCS define the functions twice, rather than just using a #define to make pow a synonym for pwr....

Best Wishes
