NAME
sqrtd64(), sqrtd128(), sqrtd32() - decimal square root functions
SYNOPSIS
#define __STDC_WANT_DEC_FP__
#include <math.h>
_Decimal64 sqrtd64(_Decimal64 x);
_Decimal128 sqrtd128(_Decimal128 x);
_Decimal32 sqrtd32(_Decimal32 x);
DESCRIPTION
sqrtd64() returns the square root of x.
sqrtd128() is a _Decimal128 version of sqrtd64(); it takes a
_Decimal128 argument and
returns a
_Decimal128 result.
sqrtd32() is a _Decimal32 version of sqrtd64(); it takes a
_Decimal32 argument and returns a
_Decimal32 result.
These math functions are supported for HP-UX 11i Version 3 September 2008 Update and forward.
USAGE
To use any of these functions, compile with the +decfp option.
Make sure your program defines
__STDC_WANT_DEC_FP__
and then includes <math.h>.
Link in the math library by specifying
-lm or -l:libm.a on the linking command line.
For more information, see the HP-UX floating-point guide for HP Integrity servers at the following site:

.
RETURN VALUE
sqrtd64(±0) returns ±0.
If x is +infinity,
sqrtd64() returns +infinity.
If x is less than 0,
sqrtd64() returns NaN and raises the invalid exception.
If x is NaN,
sqrtd64() returns NaN.
sqrtd64() raises the inexact exception whenever a rounded result does not equal the mathematical
result.
ERRORS
If x is less than 0,
sqrtd64() sets errno to [EDOM].
SEE ALSO
cbrtd64(3M), powd64(3M), math(5).
STANDARDS CONFORMANCE
These functions conform to ISO/IEC TR 24732, "Extension for the programming language C to support
decimal floating-point arithmetic".
