I've submitted a pull request to fix this: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/4425 ---------------------------------------- Bug #17804: Math.cbrt(0.0) returns NaN https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17804#change-91743 * Author: chasonr (Ray Chason) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 3.0.1p64 (2021-04-05 revision 0fb782ee38) [x86_64-linux] * Backport: 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- Math.cbrt(0.0) returns NaN. It should return 0.0. From reading the implementation, I expect this bug to happen only if glibc is in use. The failing section reads: #if defined __GLIBC__ if (isfinite(r)) { r = (2.0 * r + (f / r / r)) / 3.0; } #endif and this produces a NaN when f and r are both 0. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
