Python Program – How to Find the Square Root of Any Number?
In this Python example series, we will cover the program to find the square root of any given number
1. What is Square Root of a Number?
Square root of a number is a value, which on multiplication by itself gives the original number.
Examples: squareRoot(16) = 4 squareRoot(25) = 5 squareRoot(36) = 6 squareRoot(49) = 7
In python, we can calculate the square root of any number in different ways. Let’s implement each of them using different methods.
Some of the topics which will be helpful for understanding the program implementation better are:
2. Square Root of a Number using Power Method
Let’s find out the implementation of the program for finding the square.
#Sqrt of any number
num1 = float(input("Enter the number: "))
sqrt_res = num1**0.5
print("The Square root value is: ", sqrt_res)Output Enter the number: 34 The Square root value is: 5.8309519
Let’s use the power function from the math module and see the implementation below
#Sqrt of any number
import math
num1 = float(input("Enter the number: "))
sqrt_res = math.pow(num1, 0.5)
print("The Square root value is: ", sqrt_res)Output Enter the number: 25 The Square root value is: 5.0
3. Square Root of Any Number using math Module in Python
The math module contains different functions, one of them is sqrt function. Let’s see the same above program implementation.
#Sqrt of any number
import math
num1 = int(input("Enter the number: "))
print(math.sqrt(num1))Output Enter the number: 25 5.0
4. Conclusion
In this article, we discussed how to find the square root of any number using the math module and power method.
