(4) | (since C99) |
1-3) Computes the cube root of
arg
.
4) Type-generic macro: If
arg
has type long double, cbrtl
is called. Otherwise, if arg
has integer type or the type double, cbrt
is called. Otherwise, cbrtf
Parameters
arg | - | floating-point value |
Return value
If no errors occur, the cube root of arg
(\(\small{\sqrt[3]{arg} }\)
3√arg
If a range error occurs due to underflow, the correct result (after rounding) is returned.
Error handling
Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling.
If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559),
- if the argument is ±0 or ±∞, it is returned, unchanged
- if the argument is NaN, NaN is returned.
Notes
cbrt(arg) is not equivalent to pow(arg, 1.0/3) because the rational number \(\small{\frac1{3} }\)1 |

Example
Run this code
#include <float.h> #include <math.h> #include <stdio.h> int main(void) { printf("Normal use:\n" "cbrt(729) = %f\n", cbrt(729)); printf("cbrt(-0.125) = %f\n", cbrt(-0.125)); printf("Special values:\n" "cbrt(-0) = %f\n", cbrt(-0.0)); printf("cbrt(+inf) = %f\n", cbrt(INFINITY)); printf("Accuracy:\n" "cbrt(343) = %.*f\n", DBL_DECIMAL_DIG, cbrt(343)); printf("pow(343,1.0/3) = %.*f\n", DBL_DECIMAL_DIG, pow(343, 1.0/3)); }
Possible output:
Normal use: cbrt(729) = 9.000000 cbrt(-0.125) = -0.500000 Special values: cbrt(-0) = -0.000000 cbrt(+inf) = inf Accuracy: cbrt(343) = 7.00000000000000000 pow(343,1.0/3) = 6.99999999999999911
