sqrt

Returns the correctly rounded positive square root of a double value.

Special cases:

  • If the argument is NaN or less than zero, then the result is NaN.
  • If the argument is positive infinity, then the result is positive infinity.
  • If the argument is positive zero or negative zero, then the result is the same as the argument.
  • Otherwise, the result is the double value closest to the true mathematical square root of the argument value.

Works with:

  • Scalars
  • Timeseries
  • Curves
  • Lists/Arrays

Syntax

sqrt(var)
