Computes the square root of an input value.
The square root of the input value.
Behavior with Various x Input Types
square root is a double-precision, floating-point number if x is an integer.
If x is less than 0, sqrt(x) is not a number (NaN), unless x is complex. When x is complex, this node defines the magnitude and phase with the following equations:
where |x| is the magnitude of x and arg(x) is the phase of x:
Data Type Changes on FPGA
When you add this node to a document targeted to an FPGA, this output has a default data type that uses fewer hardware resources at compile time.
Where This Node Can Run:
Desktop OS: Windows
FPGA: DAQExpress does not support FPGA devices
Web Server: Supported in VIs that run in a web application
