Returns the square root of x (x non-negative).
The argument value is restricted for log, log10, and sqrt.
sqrt(x) (no rate restriction)
where the argument within the parentheses may be an expression. Value converters perform arithmetic translation from units of one kind to units of another. The result can then be a term in a further expression.
Here is an example of the sqrt opcode. It uses the files sqrt.orc and sqrt.sco.
Example 15-1. Example of the sqrt opcode.
/* sqrt.orc */
; Initialize the global variables.
sr = 44100

; Instrument #1.

i1 = sqrt(64)
print i1
endin
/* sqrt.orc */
/* sqrt.sco */
; Play Instrument #1 for one second.
