class atomic_posintpower< Type >
Automatic differentiation of x -> x^p, p>=2 integer, as CppAD user-atomic function.
This class implements forward and reverse operations for the function x -> x^p for use within CppAD. While CppAD would implement integer powers as a recursion of multiplications, we still use pow functions as they allow us to avoid overestimation in interval arithmetics.
