SQRT
— Square-root functionSQRT(X)
computes the square root of X.
Fortran 77 and later
Elemental function
RESULT = SQRT(X)
X | The type shall be REAL or
COMPLEX . |
The return value is of type REAL
or COMPLEX
.
The kind type parameter is the same as X.
program test_sqrt real(8) :: x = 2.0_8 complex :: z = (1.0, 2.0) x = sqrt(x) z = sqrt(z) end program test_sqrt
