Function
Computes the square root of a fixed point number, given an approximative hint.
Declaration 1 of 2
Declaration
FixedPoint<> squareRoot(FixedPoint<> x, FixedPoint<> y)Computes the square root of a fixed point number, given an approximative hint.
| Parameter | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
x | FixedPoint<> | The number to compute the square root of. |
y | FixedPoint<> | The approximative hint of the result. |
Returns: FixedPoint<> — psyqo::FixedPoint<> The square root.
Example
C++ example
#include "psyqo/soft-math.hh"
// Assume these named values have been initialized with valid data:
// FixedPoint<> x
// FixedPoint<> y
auto result = psyqo::SoftMath::squareRoot(x, y);Trade-offs and warnings
Stay within the documented range and account for quantization before chaining several operations.
