Abstract :
Binary square rooting algorithms which yield a root in a redundant representation using digits 1, ¿1, and 0 are analyzed, particularly those yielding a root in a representation in which the number of nonzero digits is minimal. An algorithm which may lead to any possible minimal representation of the square root is developed.
