AD Unary Minus Operator

Syntax
y = - x

Purpose
Computes the negative of x .

Base
The operation in the syntax above must be supported for the case where the operand is a const Base object.

x
The operand x has one of the following prototypes
    const AD<
Base>               &x
    const VecAD<
Base>::reference &x

y
The result y has type
    AD<
Basey
It is equal to the negative of the operand x .

Operation Sequence
This is an AD of Base atomic operation and hence is part of the current AD of Base operation sequence .

Derivative
If @(@ f @)@ is a Base function , @[@ \D{[ - f(x) ]}{x} = - \D{f(x)}{x} @]@

Example
The file unary_minus.cpp contains an example and test of this operation.
