function penaltymat = powerpen(basisobj, Lfdobj)
%  POWERPEN  Computes the power basis penalty matrix.
%  Arguments:
%  BASISFD ... a power basis object
%  LFDOBJ  ... either the order of derivative or a
%               linear differential operator to be penalized.
%  Returns a list the first element of which is the basis matrix
%   and the second element of which is the diagonal of the penalty matrix.
