  2. Methods of computing square roots - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_of_computing...

    A method analogous to piece-wise linear approximation but using only arithmetic instead of algebraic equations, uses the multiplication tables in reverse: the square root of a number between 1 and 100 is between 1 and 10, so if we know 25 is a perfect square (5 × 5), and 36 is a perfect square (6 × 6), then the square root of a number greater than or equal to 25 but less than 36, begins with ...

  3. Xcas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcas

    Figure 1. Xcas calculates fractions without common denominator. Figure 2. Xcas can solve equation, calculate derivative, antiderivative and more. Figure 3. Xcas can solve differential equations. Xcas is a user interface to Giac, which is an open source [2] computer algebra system (CAS) for Windows, macOS and Linux among many other platforms.

  4. Windows Calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Calculator

    A simple arithmetic calculator was first included with Windows 1.0. [5]In Windows 3.0, a scientific mode was added, which included exponents and roots, logarithms, factorial-based functions, trigonometry (supports radian, degree and gradians angles), base conversions (2, 8, 10, 16), logic operations, statistical functions such as single variable statistics and linear regression.

  5. CORDIC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CORDIC

    CORDIC (coordinate rotation digital computer), Volder's algorithm, Digit-by-digit method, Circular CORDIC (Jack E. Volder), [1] [2] Linear CORDIC, Hyperbolic CORDIC (John Stephen Walther), [3] [4] and Generalized Hyperbolic CORDIC (GH CORDIC) (Yuanyong Luo et al.), [5] [6] is a simple and efficient algorithm to calculate trigonometric functions, hyperbolic functions, square roots ...

  6. Nested radical - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_radical

    In the case of two nested square roots, the following theorem completely solves the problem of denesting. [2]If a and c are rational numbers and c is not the square of a rational number, there are two rational numbers x and y such that + = if and only if is the square of a rational number d.

  7. Square root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_root

    The square root of a positive integer is the product of the roots of its prime factors, because the square root of a product is the product of the square roots of the factors. Since p 2 k = p k , {\textstyle {\sqrt {p^{2k}}}=p^{k},} only roots of those primes having an odd power in the factorization are necessary.

  8. Tonelli–Shanks algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonelli–Shanks_algorithm

    Tonelli–Shanks cannot be used for composite moduli: finding square roots modulo composite numbers is a computational problem equivalent to integer factorization. [ 1 ] An equivalent, but slightly more redundant version of this algorithm was developed by Alberto Tonelli [ 2 ] [ 3 ] in 1891.

  9. nth root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nth_root

    A square root of a number x is a number r which, when squared, becomes x: =. Every positive real number has two square roots, one positive and one negative. For example, the two square roots of 25 are 5 and −5. The positive square root is also known as the principal square root, and is denoted with a radical sign:
