Description | Use the sqrt function to find the square root of a number. The square root of a number is the number which must be squared to obtain number : sqrt(number)^2 is equal to number. If a math operation on finite inputs produces a non-finite output, an execution error is thrown. See math operations for more information. | ||||||
