The Java cbrt Function is one of the Math Library functions, and it finds the cube root of a specified expression or an individual double value.
Java cbrt Function syntax
The syntax of the Math.cbrt in Java Programming language is as shown below. The following cbrt function accepts a positive double value as an argument. It returns the cube root of the specified expression or Value.
static double cbrt(double number); //Return Type is Double // In order to use in program: Math.cbrt(double number);
Number: It can be a double value or a valid numerical expression to find the cube root.
- If the number argument is a positive or negative double value, it will return the cube root of a given value.
- If the number argument is not a number (NaN), the Java Math.cbrt function will return NaN.
- Moreover, if it is infinity, the function will return the result as Infinity with the same sign.
Java cbrt Function Example
The Java Math.cbrt Function finds the cube root of a specified expression or an individual double value. In this Java program, We will find the cube root and display the output.
package MathFunctions; public class CbrtMethod { public static void main(String[] args) { double a = Math.cbrt(100.90 + 150.10 - 220.50 + 10.50); System.out.println("Cube Root results = " + a); System.out.println("\nCube Root of Zero: " + Math.sqrt(0)); System.out.println("\nCube Root of Positive Number: " + Math.cbrt(64)); System.out.println("Cube Root of Positive Number: " + Math.cbrt(100.95)); System.out.println("\nCube Root of Negative Number: " + Math.cbrt(-850.70)); System.out.println("Cube Root of Negative Number: " + Math.cbrt(-125.00)); } }
First, We declared a variable of type Double and performed the Java Math cbrt function directly on the expression.
double a = Math.cbrt(100.90 + 150.10 - 220.50 + 10.50); System.out.println("Cube Root results = " + a);
Next, We used the Function directly on Positive double values.
System.out.println("\nCube Root of Positive Number: " + Math.cbrt(64)); System.out.println("Cube Root of Positive Number: " + Math.cbrt(100.95));
Next, We used the Function directly on Negative double values.
System.out.println("\nCube Root of Negative Number: " + Math.cbrt(-850.70)); System.out.println("Cube Root of Negative Number: " + Math.cbrt(-125.00));
Java cbrt on Array example
In this Java program, we find the cube roots of bulk data or arrays. Here, we will declare an array of double types and find the cube root of every element in an array.
package MathFunctions; public class CbrtOnArrays { public static void main(String[] args) { double [] CbrtArray = {27.00, 64.00, 125.00, -500.90, -124.8799, 1234.8597}; for (int i = 0; i < CbrtArray.length; i++) { System.out.format("Cube Root of Array Element = %.4f\n", Math.cbrt(CbrtArray[i])); } } }
Cube Root of Array Element = 3.0000
Cube Root of Array Element = 4.0000
Cube Root of Array Element = 5.0000
Cube Root of Array Element = -7.9418
Cube Root of Array Element = -4.9984
Cube Root of Array Element = 10.7285
Within this example, We used Java For Loop to iterate the Array. Within the For Loop, we initialized the i value as 0. Next, the compiler will check the condition (i < cbrtArray.length). As long the condition is True statement inside the for loop will be executed. The Java cbrtArray.length finds the length of an array.
for (int i = 0; i < CbrtArray.length; i++) {
Here, we used the Math function directly inside the System.out.format statement. It means the compiler calls the static double cbrt(double number) to find the cube root of corresponding values.
System.out.format("Cube Root of Array Element = %.4f\n", Math.cbrt(CbrtArray[i]));
NOTE: If you want to find the cube root of a single item, then use: Math.cbrt(myArray[index_position])
Java cbrt function on Arraylist example
In this program, we are going to declare an ArrayList of double type and find the cube root of list elements.
package MathFunctions; import java.util.ArrayList; public class CbrtMethodOnArrayList { public static void main(String[] args) { ArrayList<Double> cbrtList = new ArrayList<Double>(5); cbrtList.add(12345.998); cbrtList.add(-180.05); cbrtList.add(1500.9876); cbrtList.add(1897.01); cbrtList.add(2596.98); cbrtList.add(-9878.1898); for (double x : cbrtList) { System.out.println("Cube Root of ArrayList = " + Math.cbrt(x)); } } }
Cube Root of ArrayList = 23.11224153295796
Cube Root of ArrayList = -5.646738922680259
Cube Root of ArrayList = 11.449654140567208
Cube Root of ArrayList = 12.379122865293457
Cube Root of ArrayList = 13.745362623484676
Cube Root of ArrayList = -21.45651191561244
In this example, we used the For Loop to iterate the double values in ArrayList.
for (double x : cbrtList) {
The following statement calls the Java Math method ( static double cbrt(double x) ) to find the cube root of corresponding values.
System.out.println("Cube Root of ArrayList = " + Math.cbrt(x));
