Hi everybody.

I have to implement a math function wich must calculate a n-root. But Fox just calculate Square Roots. What can I possible do?

In mathemetics taking the nth root of a number is the same as raising that number to the reciprocal of the rooot.

For example to take teh 3rd root of 64,
use 64^(1/3).

Thank you very much. Moranpl answer was very evident. I almost feel bad I did not realize. I guess I forgot the mathemathical logic for a while.

However, I would have never come up with Mr. Jamrnelson thesis.

Thanks again to both of you.
