Hi Richard,

 RS> I was wondering, in pascal, how do I return the Cube Root of a
 RS> number? I'm using BP7, I see a SQRT but I don't see anything for the
 RS> cube root and its been so long since school I just can't remember.:)

The following "equations" might be useful:

 sqrt(x)        = x ** 1/2      { x to the 1/2 power }
 cube_root(x)   = x ** 1/3
 x ** y         = exp(y * ln(x))

CU/2, Roland

... I program like a MAN.  I use COPY CON PROGRAM.EXE
