Shifting nth root algorithm not useful for computing roots with a computer, as it is always outperformed by much simpler binary search, and has the same memory complexity. 1. 0 1 1 0 1 1. 7 3 2 0 5 1. 7 0 9 9 7 1. 6 2 6 5 7 Shifting nth root algorithm The shifting "n"th root algorithm is an algorithm for extracting the "n"th root of a positive real number which proceeds iteratively by shifting in "n" digits of the radicand, starting with the most significant, and produces one digit of the root on each iteration, in a manner similar
Square root of a matrix a "positive-semidefinite matrix" has precisely one positive-semidefinite square root, which can be called its "principal square root". While the square root of a nonnegative integer is either again an integer or an irrational number, in contrast an "integer matrix" can have a square root whose entries are rational, yet not integer. For example, the matrix formula_8 has the non-integer square root formula_9 as well as the integer square root matrix formula_10. The 2×2 identity matrix is another example. A 2×2 matrix with two distinct nonzero eigenvalues has four square roots. More generally, an matrix with "distinct nonzero eigenvalues" has 2
