Negative powers
Status: Beta

The program does not seem to deal well with negative
powers. I am using version 0.4. When I try
$ mmcalc "1^(-10)"
I get
1^(-10)=inf
Which is clearly not true, as 1^x=1
This could very very misleading for someone without
much mathematical knowlege.
Work around:
Just do 1/expression, and use a positive power. So for
$ mmcalc "1^(-10)"
just use
$ mmcalc "1/(1^(10))"
These are mathematically identical.
