Cube root rescales by the negated exponent quotient · case 02

Cube root rescales by the negated exponent quotient.

Member previewVariant 2 · 3 implementations · 8 checks per implementation

Case contract

Real cube root on finite binary64 inputs. Split magnitude with frexp, divide exponent by three with floor division, and apply residual exponent before rooting. Return signed zero unchanged. Finite results are rendered to eleven significant decimal digits; modeled domain violations and arithmetic errors are explicit strings.

Why this case matters

An offline floating representation model isolates a reproducible arithmetic fault.

One recorded failure
