Root calculator with Unit Tests (C)

By Mark Narain Enzinger

Overview

This root calculator uses the Shifting nth root algorithm to calculate the square root of a number by calculating each of its decimal places one after the other.

The program can currently calculate a maximum of 8 digits of the square root of a number.

Unit tests for this program are included as a second project in the same solution.

I have also made the same program in Python and TypeScript.

Requirements

• Visual Studio
