cubit root

How can i find cubit root?

[codekiddy]

You mean Cube root?

template<typename T>
T CubeRoot(T param)
{
	return param >> 3;
}

int main()
{
	cout << CubeRoot<int>(27);
	cin.ignore();
	return 0;
}

Program output:

3

cube root of 27 is 3 :)

@codekiddy, why did you use cin.ignore(); when there was no cin?

[Peter87]

I think he mean we should ignore his answer.

Hi Gregory,

why did you use cin.ignore(); when there was no cin?

Maybe to stop a console?

not everybody use use unix or amiga computers :D

Not sure if that was a serious answer. There is a function in file <cmath> called 'pow' which can be used to find a cube root.

[vastrolorde]

I alreadt found it. Pow can only power them but cant take roots. n-th root comes from here exp(log(abs(x))/n)) nth root from x.

[codekiddy]

Cube root using std::pow looks like this one:
pow(27, 1 / 3.f);

There is a function in <cmath> called std::cbrt as well: http://ideone.com/27aBq
