(** [Zpower_pos z n] is the n-th power of [z] when [n] is an binary
      integer (type [positive]) and [z] a signed integer (type [Z]) *)
Definition Zpower_pos (z:Z) (n:positive) := iter_pos n Z (fun x:Z => z * x) 1.

Definition Zpower (x y:Z) :=
    match y with
      | Zpos p => Zpower_pos x p
      | Z0 => 1
      | Zneg p => 0
    end.
