AlgebraicStructureTraits_::IsSquare Concept Reference

Definition

AdaptableBinaryFunction that computes whether the first argument is a square. If the first argument is a square the second argument, which is taken by reference, contains the square root. Otherwise, the content of the second argument is undefined.

A ring element x is said to be a square iff there exists a ring element y such that x= y*y. In case the ring is a UniqueFactorizationDomain, y is uniquely defined up to multiplication by units.
