`sqrt()`

Function in Builtins

sqrt(x): square root, component-wise.

import { sqrt } from 'typeshade'

The signature, the description and the examples come from the compiler's own source at commit 26de7be8.

Syntax

const sqrt: <K extends "f64" | FloatKey>(x: ReadonlyNode<K>) => Node<K>

Node<K>

x < 0 is undefined per spec. When only 1/√x is needed, inverseSqrt is one call in place of a square root and a divide.

import { fn, sqrt, f32T } from 'typeshade'

const dist = fn('dist', { sq: f32T }, ({ sq }) => sqrt(sq))

Target	Support	Notes
WGSL (WebGPU)	Supported	`sqrt(x)`. Over `f64` operands the fp64 pass rewrites it into its `df64` helper.
GLSL ES 3.00 (WebGL2)	Supported	`sqrt(x)`. Over `f64` operands the fp64 pass rewrites it into its `df64` helper.
CPU oracle	Supported	Evaluated in f64 by the oracle.
