Sourced from malachite-q's releases.

v0.9.0

This release adds functionality for taking the square root of Floats, and for taking the reciprocal square root of Floats (that is, raising them to the power of -1/2). It also adds several new constants that may be computed to arbitrary precision. Also, thanks to Dasaav-dsv for adding the as_limbs_asc function to Naturals, allowing users to take a reference to a Natural's limbs.

Breaking changes:

• The Thue-Morse constant is now called the Prouhet-Thue-Morse constant
• Natural logarithms are now called ln, not log

2026 will be a big year for Floats!
