n = 2 인 경우에는 Newton-Raphson 의 방법이 Heron 의 방법과 동일하다.
Ruby 언어에는 지수 연산자 ** 를 (밑수)**(지수) 의 형식으로 언어 자체에서 지원하고 있다. 하지만 차후 필요한 데가 있을 것 같아서 이와 유사한 n 제곱 함수와 n 제곱근 함수를 구현해 보았다.
지수가 정수인 거듭제곱을 계산하는 함수도 nPow(), gPow, mPow() 세 개 구현해 놓았는데, 이들 세 함수는 절차적 언어의 성능상 재귀호출이 아니고 단순 반복 기법을 사용하는 함수이다. 이 세 함수 중 mPow() 의 성능이 가장 우수하다. 큰 지수의 경우 for 반복문의 반복회수를 따져 보면 성능 비교를 할 수 있을 것이다. (성능 비교를 위해 세 가지를 모두 소스에 남겨 두었다.) mPow() 함수는 n 제곱근을 구하는 재귀함수 newtonNthRoot(int, double) 의 구현에 사용되기도 한다. if ... else ... 구문이 많아 소스가 복잡하게 보일지 모르겠으나 이는 밑수나 지수가 음수이거나 0인 경우의 처리를 위함이다. 구현된 모든 함수의 구현에는 예외상황(예를 들어, 음수의 짝수 제곱근 같은 예외상황) 처리 과정이 있다.
아래의 소스는 대부분 버전의 Ruby 에서 실행되도록 작성된 소스이다.
참고로, Ruby 언어는 (다른 언어와 달리) 대분자만으로 쓰여진 것은 구문상 변수가 아니라 상수를 의미한다. 잠간 irb(인터랙티브 Ruby)를 실행하여 확인해 보자.
로 선언한 것은 (두 전역변수가 아니라) 두 상수를 선언한 것이며, 이는 소스 전체에서 통용된다.
