heron
A library implementing Heron's method to find a square root.
Usage
use heron::heron;
let square = 25.0;
let precision = 0.00001;
let root = heron(square, precision);
println!("square root: {}", root);Examples
This repository contains two examples.
CLI
This program waits for the user to input a suqare and returns its suqare root with the given precision.
cargo run --example cli
square:
25
absolute precision:
0.000001
square root: 5
Web (WASM)
See here for a live version.
The same principle applies to the second example, which works in the browser.
cargo-web might be used to build it:
cargo web start -p heron_web
