The integers are closed under positive powers, and not under positive nthRoots, 
this is true. However, the problem remains, as if the root degree `n` is 
negative, then for radicands that are not 1, -1 or 0 we should return 0, and 
zero raised to a negative exponent is undefined in real numbers, and so the 
remainder is.
