Classes

A radical expression. Radical expressions are simplified by calling the objects simplify() method.

Usage

Create a new expression using integers with

The cube root of 27:

let expression = Radical(root: 27, index: 3)

Example

The square root of 27:

let expression = Radical(root: 27)
print("Your expression is \(expression.radicand) square roots of \(expression.coefficient)")
// => Your expression is 1 square roots of 27 (root 27)
expression.simplify()
print("Your expression is \(expression.radicand) square roots of \(expression.coefficient)")
// => Your expression is 3 square roots of 3 (root 27)

Imaginary Numbers

simplify() will do nothing if simplification results in an imaginary number.
