Square Root by Digit
Recurrence
This method of performing the square root operation is conceptually very similar
to the method for division discussed in the previous chapter. Consequently, we
develop the algorithm in a similar fashion, providing less detail since we assume
familiarity with the developments for division. Table 6.1 gives a summary of the
main definitions. Moreover, we concentrate on algorithms that use estimates for
the result-digit selection and redundant addition in the recurrence.
As in division, the algorithm is presented
for fractional
operand x and result
s. For floating-point representation ...
