sqrt is not find???

I was writing a simple program in linux, which includes sqrt function of c. I included the math.h. But when I use gcc to compile it, it gave an error message: /home/murat/tmp/ccOv9upo.o(.text+0x4b): In function `main': : undefined reference to `sqrt' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status I...

How to create SQRT function in catenate file

HI, I have a file which i catenate and using the fields in the file, I would like to get sqrt of it. I tried to man the function but it normally would need an echo as well as bc. What I am intending to find out is catenate a file where let say cat a.txt| awk ' { t= h*($3+$2); t=...

Q: Is SQRT(n) possible in a POSIX compliant shell? A: Yes within limits.

Hi all... This is just a fun project to see if it is possible to get a square root of a positive integer from 1 to 9200000 to 6 decimal places on a 64 bit architecture machine. It is coded around dash and the results show the values from 0 to 10000. Complex numbers can easily be catered for by...

sqrtl

SQRT(3) 						   BSD Library Functions Manual 						   SQRT(3)

NAME

     cbrt, cbrtf, cbrtl, sqrt, sqrtf, sqrtl -- cube root and square root functions

LIBRARY

     Math Library (libm, -lm)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <math.h>

     double
     cbrt(double x);

     float
     cbrtf(float x);

     long double
     cbrtl(long double x);

     double
     sqrt(double x);

     float
     sqrtf(float x);

     long double
     sqrtl(long double x);

DESCRIPTION

     The cbrt(), cbrtf(), and cbrtl() functions compute the cube root of x.

     The sqrt(), sqrtf(), and sqrtl() functions compute the non-negative square root of x.

RETURN VALUES

     The cbrt(), cbrtf(), and cbrtl() functions return the requested cube root.  The sqrt(), sqrtf(), and sqrtl() functions return the requested
     square root unless an error occurs.  An attempt to take the sqrt() of negative x raises an invalid exception and causes an NaN to be returned
     (except that the square root of -0 is valid and equal to -0.)

SEE ALSO

     fenv(3), math(3)

STANDARDS

     The cbrt(), cbrtf(), cbrtl(), sqrt(), sqrtf(), and sqrtl() functions conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (``ISO C99'').

HISTORY

     The cbrt() function appeared in 4.3BSD.  The sqrtl() function appeared in FreeBSD 8.0.  The cbrtl() function appeared in FreeBSD 9.0.
