Find the square root of n
0
$begingroup$
The task:
Given a real number n, find the square root of n. For example, given n
= 9, return 3.
My solution:
const findRoot = n => n >= 0 ? n ** .5 : void 0;
console.log(findRoot(9));
Is this some kind of trick question? What's there to solve? Did I miss something?

-1 is a real number. You might also be meant to solve it without usingsqrtor floating-point exponentiation.
