New submission from bhaskar:
the value of a -ve number when raised by a power of even number always results
in a +ve number. I tried it with -1**10 , -1**2, -9**4
these all are resulting in -ve numbers which is mathematically incorrect.
ps. the same example is in the attachment

R. David Murray added the comment:
This bit of python's precedence rules often catches people by surprise. **
binds tighter than -, so what python is evaluating is -(1**10).
