[GiNaC-devel] Some more evaluation rules for abs()

[Vladimir V. Kisil]

	Dear All,

  I have added some more evaluation rules for abs(). They evaluate
 absolute values of powers and exponents. Simple checks
 are added as well. The effect is like this:

  realsymbol a("a"), b("b"), x("x"), y("y");

  cout << abs(exp(x+I*y)).eval() << endl;
  // before: -> abs(exp(x+I*y))
  // now:    -> exp(x)

  cout << abs(pow(x+I*y,a+I*b)).eval() << endl;
  // before: -> abs((x+I*y)^(I*b+a))
  // now:    -> abs(x+I*y)^a

  Best wishes,
  Vladimir
