             Summary: elementwise power operator ^
                 Key: MAHOUT-1725
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1725
             Project: Mahout
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Dmitriy Lyubimov
            Assignee: Dmitriy Lyubimov
             Fix For: 0.10.2


this is a power elementwise operation on in-core and out-of-core tensor types. 
it is only defined on (tensor-type, Double) pair. This is consistent with R 
caret operator. 

e.g. computing distance between two points(vectors) x and y:

        sqrt((x-y) ^= 2 sum)

Danger is that for integral types in Scala interpret this as exclusive or, 
which is something completely different altogether .
