NAME
cbrt, cbrtf, cbrtl - cube root function
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double cbrt(double x);
float cbrtf(float x);
long double cbrtl(long double x);
Link with -lm.
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
cbrt():
_ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L
|| _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500
|| /* Since glibc 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE
|| /* Glibc versions <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE
cbrtf(), cbrtl():
_ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L
|| /* Since glibc 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE
|| /* Glibc versions <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE
DESCRIPTION
These functions return the (real) cube root of x. This function cannot
fail; every representable real value has a representable real cube
root.
RETURN VALUE
These functions return the cube root of x.
If x is +0, -0, positive infinity, negative infinity, or NaN, x is re-
turned.
ERRORS
No errors occur.
