'''Purpose:''' Usage help for the '''sqrt''' math function. ---- The call, [expr { sqrt($x) }] returns the square root of $x. ---- If you're using ''sqrt'' in connection with the Pythagorean Theorem: [expr { sqrt( $x * $x + $y * $y ) }] note that Tcl provides a [hypot] function, which gives a more concise formula: [expr { hypot( $x, $y ) }] The [hypot] function is also more robust in that it will get overflow and underflow less often when dealing with very large or very small numbers. <> Function | Math Function help | Mathematics
