Dear all,
I attached a proposal for integrating exponentiation into the Ints theory. In a nutshell, the proposal is to introduce a new function
(** Int Int Int)
with the following semantics:
- (** x y) = x^y if y >= 0
- (** x y) = 1 div x^(-y) if y < 0
All the details are in the attached PDF, and there's also a corresponding
issue on GitHub.
If you're interested, please comment, ideally before Christmas. The goal is to stabilize the proposal by the end of the year.
Best
Florian
