   [Axiom] define a rule   
   03 Jun 17 10:34:44   
   
   I tried to define   
      
   j^n==(n::INT rem 2=0=>1;j)   
      
   When write j^2 return 1 j^3 return j   
   Ecc   
      
   but if I write j*j return j^2   
   and not 1   
   j*j*j -> j^3   
   Ecc   
   It appears that there would be one eval less...
