Looking for a way for a student to use a cube root in a Math Expression and Numerical Input answer. cbrt
does not work.
Any advice will be highly appreciated.

Hi @Roline!
The expressions in the math expression input are converted to their LaTex equivalent. sqrt(n)
is converted to \sqrt{n}
. However there is no rule to convert a function to the cubic root in LaTex, which should be \sqrt[3]{n}
. That might be an interesting feature to add.
For the time being, you can instruct students to use a power equivalent, e.g., n^{1/3)
