If you want to square a number you would go like this

code:

number := number ** 2

If you want the square root you would go:

code:

number := sqrt (number)

or

code:

number := number ** 0.5

And if you need to go further (cubic roots, quartic roots etc), just multiply by the equivalent fraction.

code:

final := number ** (1/2) % Square root final := number ** (1/3) % Cubic root final := number ** (1/4) % Quartic root

Etc...
