// Complex square root
//
// DESCRIPTION:
//
// If z = x + iy,  r = |z|, then
//
//                       1/2
// Re w  =  [ (r + x)/2 ]   ,
//
//                       1/2
// Im w  =  [ (r - x)/2 ]   .
//
// Cancelation error in r-x or r+x is avoided by using the
// identity  2 Re w Im w  =  y.
//
// Note that -w is also a square root of z.  The root chosen
// is always in the right half plane and Im w has the same sign as y.
//
// ACCURACY:
//
//                      Relative error:
// arithmetic   domain     # trials      peak         rms
//    DEC       -10,+10     25000       3.2e-17     9.6e-18

// Sqrt returns the square root of x.
