/* cbrtl.c
*
* Cube root, long double precision
*
*
*
* SYNOPSIS:
*
* long double x, y, cbrtl();
*
* y = cbrtl( x );
*
*
*
* DESCRIPTION:
*
* Returns the cube root of the argument, which may be negative.
*
* Range reduction involves determining the power of 2 of
* the argument. A polynomial of degree 2 applied to the
* mantissa, and multiplication by the cube root of 1, 2, or 4
* approximates the root to within about 0.1%. Then Newton's
* iteration is used three times to converge to an accurate
* result.
*
*
*
* ACCURACY:
*
* Relative error:
* arithmetic domain # trials peak rms
* IEEE -8,8 100000 1.3e-34 3.9e-35
* IEEE exp(+-707) 100000 1.3e-34 4.3e-35
*
