I am setting some mathematics using eqn and troff. A second or square root of an expression is simply specified by entering sqrt expression. I have, however, an equation containing the third or cube roots of some expression. I do not want to raise this expression to a fractional exponent (although I may have to). Would somebody please send me mail indicating whether or not it is possible to express this to eqn (and if so, how). I will summarize responses to the network. Thanks. aps.
