...aren't implementing the quadratic residue algorithm. I fixed a couple (perhaps clumsily) and marked Seed7 as bad (it uses the built-in sqrt() function). Raku is also wrong, as it links to another sqrt task which doesn't utilize the qr algo.

Just a reminder, the task is not to compute square roots in any way, it is to implement the quadratic residue method of computing the square root. --Enter your username (talk) 09:33, 9 December 2020 (UTC)


Update: added qr algo to Raku entry. --Enter your username (talk) 22:28, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
