Square root (SQRT) instruction
The Square Root instruction (SQRT) takes the square root of a real number (IN)
and produces a real number result OUT.
• SQRT (IN)= OUT
To obtain other roots:
• 5 cubed = 5^3 = EXP(3*LN(5)) = 125
• The cube root of 125 = 125^(1/3) = EXP((1/3)*LN(125))= 5
• The square root of 5 cubed = 5^(3/2) = EXP(3/2*LN(5)) = 11.18034
Non-fatal errors with ENO = 0
• 0006H Indirect address
• SM1.1 Overflow
• SM1.0 Result of operation = zero
• SM1.1 Overflow, illegal value generated during the operation, or illegal input
• SM1.2 Negative result
