An on-line square rooting algorithm
M.D. Ercegovac · 1978
An on-line algorithm for computing square roots in a radix 2, normalized floating-point number system with the redundant digit set {-1, 0, 1} is described. The algorithm has on-line delay of one and it is amenable for modular implementation. A systematic approach, used in deriving this algorithm, is presented in detail.
