cbrt
Cube root.SYNOPSIS:
double x, y, cbrt();
y = cbrt(x);
DESCRIPTION:
Returns the cube root of the argument, which could be negative. Range reduction involves determining the power of 2 of the argument. A polynomial of degree 2 applied to the mantissa, and multiplication by the cube root of 1, 2, or 4 approximates the root to within about 0.1%. Then Newton's iteration is used three times to converge to an accurate result.
