NAME
       cbrt, cbrtf, cbrtl - cube root function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <math.h>

       double cbrt(double x);
       float cbrtf(float x);
       long double cbrtl(long double x);

       Link with -lm.

               || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500

       cbrtf(), cbrtl():
           _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L
               || /* Since glibc 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE
               || /* Glibc versions <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE

DESCRIPTION
       These functions return the (real) cube root of x.  This function cannot
       fail; every representable real value  has  a  representable  real  cube
       root.

RETURN VALUE
       These functions return the cube root of x.

       If  x is +0, -0, positive infinity, negative infinity, or NaN, x is re-
       turned.

ERRORS
       No errors occur.
