Recursion Test - Part 1 (Exponent)

[asalem1]

First off, I wanted to say thanks for setting this up, it's been a huge help in practicing recursion! I just wanted to point out a slight issue with one of the tests (lines 435-440) in Part I. A negative base with an even exponent will yield a positive number.

it('should accept negative integer for base', function() {
expect(exponent(-3,4)).to.equal(-81); //should be 81
expect(exponent(-12,5)).to.equal(-248832);
expect(exponent(-7,2)).to.equal(-49); //should be 49
expect(exponent(-7,4)).to.equal(-2401); //should be 2401
});

Hey, @asalem1 glad you're enjoying the repo! I concede to your math. Since JS is known to struggle with math, I suspect I used Google or some other calculator and failed to include parens around the negative number. Note the difference:

https://www.google.com/#q=(-3)^4

Would you like to make a PR with the fix?
