Gilles created MATH-1050:
----------------------------

             Summary: Deprecate "pow(int, long)" and "pow(long,long)" in 
"ArithmeticUtils"
                 Key: MATH-1050
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1050
             Project: Commons Math
          Issue Type: Task
    Affects Versions: 3.2
            Reporter: Gilles
            Assignee: Gilles
            Priority: Trivial
             Fix For: 4.0, 3.3


Those two methods uses a "long" for the exponent, but overflow will occur when 
the exponent is larger than 31 (except for the trivial case where the base is 
1).
