Nice to see the forum back up and running again. Took a snooze during the downtime, just as I was about to post this.
Anyway, this shows my string math method and Treebeards, side by side, for multiplication, division, and subtraction to find general roots using Newton's method. Try "1" for my string math routine, followed by "9" for the number and "2" for the root. Press a key to continue a few times and when it gets to 3.0000...1, you will notice each new iteration just adds more in-between zeros. Same when using the mult, div, sub, with Treebeards, which would be choice #2 at startup. Press the space bar exit loop and re-run from start. Until I can figure out a solid way to exit the loop, we have to do that, for now , manually. As I stated earlier, I would probably have to put my rounding last digit routine back in for that. You can try any whole number root like "32" "5" to find the fifth root of 32, 2, etc.
I did make what I consider to be a much better long division routine, but it is only for square roots, not all general roots like this one. That routine is embedded in my pi routine in another thread.
