SQRT

Formulas / SQRT
Calculate the positive square root of a number.

SQRT(number)

Examples

=SQRT(9)
The SQRT function is used in Sourcetable to calculate the square root of a number. For example, if you enter the formula in a cell, the result will be 3.
=SQRT(0.25)
The SQRT function can also be used to calculate the square root of decimal numbers. For example, if you enter the formula into a cell, the result will be 0.5.
=SQRT(81)
The SQRT function can also be used to calculate the square root of larger numbers. For example, if you enter the formula into a cell, the result will be 9.
=SQRT(144)
The SQRT function can also be used to calculate the square root of even larger numbers. For example, if you enter the formula into a cell, the result will be 12.

The SQRT function is used to calculate the positive square root of a number. It requires one number argument to return the result.

The SQRT function requires one numeric argument and returns the square root of that argument.
If the argument is negative, the SQRT function will return a #NUM! error.

What is the SQRT function?
