are extended with the following functions:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
power (x, n);
power (x, n, monoid_operation);</pre><p>Returns, in FORTRAN syntax, "<code class="code">x ** n</code>" where
<code class="code">n &gt;= 0</code>. In the
case of <code class="code">n == 0</code>, returns the identity element for the
monoid operation. The two-argument signature uses multiplication (for
a true "power" implementation), but addition is supported as well.
The operation functor must be associative.
</p><p>The <code class="code">iota</code> function wins the award for Extension With the
Coolest Name (the name comes from Ken Iverson's APL language.) As
described in the <a class="link" href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/iota.html" target="_top">SGI
documentation</a>, it "assigns sequentially increasing values to a range.
That is, it assigns <code class="code">value</code> to <code class="code">*first</code>,
<code class="code">value + 1</code> to<code class="code"> *(first + 1)</code> and so on."
