> Returns the fast approximate square root of the given value, x

```c
SHZ_INLINE float shz_sqrtf_fsrra(float x) SHZ_NOEXCEPT;
```

Returns the fast approximate square root of the given value, `x`.

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `x` | `float` |  |

## Returns

`float`

## Naming and requirements

- `_fsrra`: Uses `FSRRA` (fast approximate 1/sqrt(x)). The argument or denominator must be positive. Faster, less precise. ([Naming and Suffixes](https://sh4zam.com/concepts/naming-and-suffixes/))
