I need to get the nth root of integers and find that pow(x, 1/p)

didn't see anything that jumped out at me other than sqrt. Is there
a function to get nth roots?
Yes, and you found it.
If the variable p is an integer, however, by C's integer division
rules 1/p will be 0 whenever p != 1. pow(x, 1.0/p) will probably do
what you want.
