Square root

Note: Many $functions have been deprecated in favor of Object Oriented methods. The OO equivalent for the $Sqrt function is the SquareRoot function.

The $Sqrt function returns the value of the square root of the given argument. If the argument is negative, an error message is printed and the request is cancelled.

Syntax

%num = $Sqrt(x)

Usage notes

  • If x exceeds 7.237 x 1075, an arithmetic overflow occurs, and the value 0 is returned.
