C program to find square root of a number

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
 
int main () {
    double x, result;
    printf("Enter a number\n");
    scanf("%lf", &x);
   
    result = sqrt(x);
    printf("Square root of %lf = %lf\n", x, result);
   
    return 0;
}
Output
Enter a number
49
Square root of 49.000000 = 7.000000
Enter a number
