Defined in header <cmath>
float       sqrt( float arg );
double      sqrt( double arg );
long double sqrt( long double arg );
double      sqrt( Integral arg );
(since C++11)

Computes square root of arg.

[edit] Parameters

arg - floating point or integer value

[edit] Return value

square root of arg.

Domain error occurs if arg is negative. NAN is returned in that case.
