http://math.exeter.edu/rparris/peanut/cordic.pdf (page 16) gives a very weird way of computing square roots using trig functions -- anonymous
 
:We do have an article about [[CORDIC]], which mentions computing square roots but does not give further details. I added a sentence to this article with a link to CORDIC. I don't have an idea whether CORDIC is still used (or was ever used) to compute square roots, but it would be good to have some more details. -- [[User:Jitse Niesen|Jitse Niesen]] ([[User talk:Jitse Niesen|talk]]) 14:42, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
