3 * Cube root, long double precision

7 * SYNOPSIS:
8 *
9 * long double x, y, cbrtl();
10 *
11 * y = cbrtl( x );
12 *
13 *
14 *
15 * DESCRIPTION:
16 *
17 * Returns the cube root of the argument, which may be negative.
18 *
19 * Range reduction involves determining the power of 2 of
20 * the argument. A polynomial of degree 2 applied to the
21 * mantissa, and multiplication by the cube root of 1, 2, or 4
22 * approximates the root to within about 0.1%. Then Newton's
23 * iteration is used three times to converge to an accurate
24 * result.
25 *
26 *
27 *
28 * ACCURACY:
29 *
30 * Relative error:
31 * arithmetic domain # trials peak rms
32 * IEEE -8,8 100000 1.3e-34 3.9e-35
33 * IEEE exp(+-707) 100000 1.3e-34 4.3e-35
