The inner one is redundant because the square root for any number in the interval x x 1 where x is an integer always lies within the interval floor sqrt x ceil sqrt x and therefore you don t need to floor a number before taking the square root of it if you are only interested the integer part of the result.
Floor of sqrt of x.
B sqrt x returns the square root of each element of the array x.
Other computer languages commonly use notations like entier x int x basic ms excel or floor x c c r and python.
Given an integer x find it s square root.
X 4 output.
For the elements of x that are negative or complex sqrt x produces complex results.
If x is not a perfect square then return floor x.
The language apl uses x.
Since the return type is an integer the decimal digits are truncated and only the integer part of the result is returned.
Otherwise the ceiling is one more than the square root.
If x is an exact square the ceiling and the floor of the square root are equal.
The square root of 4 is 2 input.
X 11 output.
Result 1 modifying the code you linked to is not a good idea since that code uses some properties of the newton raphson method of calculating the square root.
The sqrt function s domain includes negative and complex numbers which can lead to unexpected results if used unintentionally.
The square root of 11 lies in between 3 and 4 so floor of the square root is 3.
Compute and return the square root of x where x is guaranteed to be a non negative integer.
