                     23:  *   Bit by bit method using integer arithmetic. (Slow, but portable)
                     24:  *   1. Normalization
                     25:  *     Scale x to y in [1,4) with even powers of 2:
                     26:  *     find an integer k such that  1 <= (y=x*2^(2k)) < 4, then
                     27:  *             sqrt(x) = 2^k * sqrt(y)
                     28:  *   2. Bit by bit computation
                     29:  *     Let q  = sqrt(y) truncated to i bit after binary point (q = 1),
                     30:  *          i                                                   0

                     44:  *
                     45:  *     With some algebric manipulation, it is not difficult to see
                     46:  *     that (2) is equivalent to
                     47:  *                             -(i+1)
                     48:  *                     s  +  2       <= y                      (3)

                     50:  *
                     51:  *     The advantage of (3) is that s  and y  can be computed by
                     52:  *                                   i      i
                     53:  *     the following recurrence formula:
                     54:  *         if (3) is false
                     55:  *
                     56:  *         s     =  s  ,       y    = y   ;                    (4)
                     57:  *          i+1      i          i+1    i
                     58:  *
                     59:  *         otherwise,
                     60:  *                         -i                     -(i+1)
                     61:  *         s     =  s  + 2  ,  y    = y  -  s  - 2             (5)
                     62:  *           i+1      i          i+1    i     i
                     63:  *
                     64:  *     One may easily use induction to prove (4) and (5).
                     65:  *     Note. Since the left hand side of (3) contain only i+2 bits,
                     66:  *           it does not necessary to do a full (53-bit) comparison
                     67:  *           in (3).
                     68:  *   3. Final rounding
                     69:  *     After generating the 53 bits result, we compute one more bit.
                     70:  *     Together with the remainder, we can decide whether the
                     71:  *     result is exact, bigger than 1/2ulp, or less than 1/2ulp
                     72:  *     (it will never equal to 1/2ulp).
                     73:  *     The rounding mode can be detected by checking whether
                     74:  *     huge + tiny is equal to huge, and whether huge - tiny is
                     75:  *     equal to huge for some floating point number "huge" and "tiny".
                     76:  *
                     77:  * Special cases:
                     78:  *     sqrt(+-0) = +-0         ... exact
                     79:  *     sqrt(inf) = inf
                     80:  *     sqrt(-ve) = NaN         ... with invalid signal
                     81:  *     sqrt(NaN) = NaN         ... with invalid signal for signaling NaN
                     82:  *
                     83:  * Other methods : see the appended file at the end of the program below.

                    200: (This is a copy of a drafted paper by Prof W. Kahan
                    201: and K.C. Ng, written in May, 1986)
                    202:
                    203:        Two algorithms are given here to implement sqrt(x)
                    204:        (IEEE double precision arithmetic) in software.
                    205:        Both supply sqrt(x) correctly rounded. The first algorithm (in
                    206:        Section A) uses newton iterations and involves four divisions.
                    207:        The second one uses reciproot iterations to avoid division, but
                    208:        requires more multiplications. Both algorithms need the ability
                    209:        to chop results of arithmetic operations instead of round them,
                    210:        and the INEXACT flag to indicate when an arithmetic operation
                    211:        is executed exactly with no roundoff error, all part of the
                    212:        standard (IEEE 754-1985). The ability to perform shift, add,
                    213:        subtract and logical AND operations upon 32-bit words is needed
                    214:        too, though not part of the standard.

                    233:
                    234:        By performing shifts and subtracts on x0 and x1 (both regarded
                    235:        as integers), we obtain an 8-bit approximation of sqrt(x) as
                    236:        follows.
                    237:
                    238:                k  := (x0>>1) + 0x1ff80000;
                    239:                y0 := k - T1[31&(k>>15)].       ... y ~ sqrt(x) to 8 bits
                    240:        Here k is a 32-bit integer and T1[] is an integer array containing
                    241:        correction terms. Now magically the floating value of y (y's
                    242:        leading 32-bit word is y0, the value of its trailing word is 0)
                    243:        approximates sqrt(x) to almost 8-bit.
                    244:

                    253:
                    254:        Apply Heron's rule three times to y, we have y approximates
                    255:        sqrt(x) to within 1 ulp (Unit in the Last Place):

                    274:
                    275:        This formula has one division fewer than the one above; however,
                    276:        it requires more multiplications and additions. Also x must be
                    277:        scaled in advance to avoid spurious overflow in evaluating the
                    278:        expression 3y*y+x. Hence it is not recommended uless division
                    279:        is slow. If division is very slow, then one should use the
                    280:        reciproot algorithm given in section B.
