# sqrt1pm1
|
||
|
|
||
|
> Compute `sqrt( 1 + x ) - 1`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<section class="usage">
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var sqrt1pm1 = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/sqrt1pm1' );
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### sqrt1pm1( x )
|
||
|
|
||
|
Computes `sqrt( 1 + x ) - 1` more accurately for small `x`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var v = sqrt1pm1( 3.0 );
|
||
|
// returns 1.0
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = sqrt1pm1( 0.5 );
|
||
|
// returns ~0.225
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = sqrt1pm1( 0.02 );
|
||
|
// returns ~0.01
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = sqrt1pm1( -0.5 );
|
||
|
// returns ~-0.293
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = sqrt1pm1( -1.1 );
|
||
|
// returns NaN
|
||
|
|
||
|
v = sqrt1pm1( NaN );
|
||
|
// returns NaN
|
||
|
