Description
|
|
|
•
|
The sqrt(x) function takes the square root the unit-free portion of x and multiplies it by the unit raised to the power 1/2.
|
|
•
|
The root(x, n) and root[n](x) functions take the nth root of the unit-free portion of x and multiply it by the unit raised to the power 1/n.
|
|
•
|
The surd(x, n) function takes the nth root of the unit-free portion of x, whose (complex) argument is closest to the unit-free portion of x, and multiplies it by the unit raised to the power 1/n.
