Er-float-sqrt

(Single-precision) floating point square root.

(er-float-sqrt a) is a lispfloat wrapper function.

In the logic this function does not have a definition, but its ACL2::constraints say it returns (mv errmsg ans), where:

errmsg is either a string that indicates an error has occurred (e.g., a rounding error when converting rationals to floats, an overflow, etc.)
ans is a rational.
