JavaScript - calculate root of any degree

function calculateRoot(value, degree) {

    return Math.pow(value, 1.0 / degree);

}

​

// Examples:

​

// degree = 2

console.log( calculateRoot(  9  , 2 ) ); //  3

console.log( calculateRoot(  4  , 2 ) ); //  2

​

console.log( calculateRoot(  2  , 2 ) ); //  1.4142135623730951

console.log( calculateRoot(  0.5, 2 ) ); //  0.7071067811865476

console.log( calculateRoot(  0  , 2 ) ); //  0

console.log( calculateRoot( -1  , 2 ) ); //  NaN

​

// degree = 3

console.log( calculateRoot(  8  , 3 ) ); // 2

console.log( calculateRoot(  27 , 3 ) ); // 3

​

console.log( calculateRoot(  2  , 3 ) ); // 1.2599210498948732

console.log( calculateRoot(  0.5, 3 ) ); // 0.7937005259840998

console.log( calculateRoot(  0  , 3 ) ); // 0 

console.log( calculateRoot( -1  , 3 ) ); // NaN

​

// float degree

console.log( calculateRoot(  25 ,  0.5   ) ); // 625

console.log( calculateRoot(  25 , -0.5   ) ); // 0.0015999999999999999

console.log( calculateRoot(  25 ,  0.005 ) ); // 3.872591914849318e+279
