Takes the cube root of a positive or negative number. It works exactly the same as 3^^×^^√ or ^(1/3) but is smaller and uses an ending parenthesis. If used on a list, it will return a list with the cube root of each element.

³√({1,‾8,27})

For complex numbers, the [*http://mathworld.wolfram.com/CubeRoot.html principal cube root] is returned, which may be different from the cube root you'd get for the same real number:

³√(-8)
-2
³√(-8+0i)
1+1.732050808i

Never raise something to the one-third power explicitly; use this command instead.
