We give new algorithms for the computation of square roots and reciprocals of power series in C║x║ If M(n) denotes the cost of multiplying polynomials of degree n, the square root to order n costs ...

One day while working on a task with another engineer, we needed to take the square root of a rather large number and both of us had momentarily misplaced our calculators. “Okay”, I said. “It'll just ...

Years ago, no math education was complete without understanding how to compute a square root. Today, you are probably just reaching for a calculator, or if you are writing a program, you’ll probably ...

Treat Code as Data: C#: Implement Hero Roots Imperatively: Listing 3 This imperative implementation of Hero's square root algorithm concentrates on how to calculate the root. It contains loops and ...
