    <para>
    Exponentiation of matrices or vectors by a constant vector.</para>
    <para>
    If <literal>A</literal> is a vector or a rectangular matrix the exponentiation is done
    element-wise, with the usual meaning.</para>
    <para>
    For square <literal>A</literal> matrices the exponentiation is done in the matrix sense.</para>
    <para>
    For boolean, polynomial and rational matrices, the exponent must be an
    integer</para>
    <refsection>
      <title>Remarks </title>
      <para><literal>123.^b</literal> is interpreted as <literal>(123).^b</literal>. In such
    cases dot is part of the operator, not of the number.</para>
      <para>
      For two real or complex numbers <literal>x1</literal> et
      <literal>x2</literal> the value of  <literal>x1^x2</literal> is the "principal value"
      determined by <literal>x1^x2 = exp(x2*log(x1))</literal>.
