DESCRIPTION

30       These functions return the (real) cube root of x.  This function cannot
31       fail; every representable real value  has  a  representable  real  cube
32       root.
33

RETURN VALUE

35       These functions return the cube root of x.
36
37       If  x  is  +0,  -0,  positive infinity, negative infinity, or NaN, x is
38       returned.

ERRORS
