    tf.math.sqrt(
        x, name=None
    )

I.e., \\(y = \\sqrt{x} = x\^{1/2}\\).

| ## Args ||
|---|---|
| `x` | A `Tensor`. Must be one of the following types: `bfloat16`, `half`, `float32`, `float64`, `complex64`, `complex128`. |
| `name` | A name for the operation (optional). |

<br />

<br />

<br />

| ## Returns ||
|---|---|
| A `Tensor`. Has the same type as `x`. <br /> If `x` is a `SparseTensor`, returns `SparseTensor(x.indices, tf.math.sqrt(x.values, ...), x.dense_shape)` ||
