SquareRoot(number value)

Parameters

• value (number): The number to compute the square root of.

Returns

• number: The square root of the input. Returns NaN for negative inputs.

Description

Computes the square root using Math.Sqrt. Equivalent to Power(value, 0.5). Returns NaN for negative inputs rather than throwing an error.

Examples

var a = SquareRoot(9)
# a = 3

var b = SquareRoot(2)
# b = 1.4142135623730951

var c = SquareRoot(0)
# c = 0

var d = SquareRoot(-1)
# d = NaN
