square root function

how can i use a sqare root function on python. Like if i wanted so square root a number or a variable.

because in C++ it's sqrt(number) including the math.h header.

I don't know much about python. Just started today so please be very basic.

Use the math package:

Python 2.1.3 (#1, Apr 20 2002, 10:14:34)
...
>>> import math
>>> math.sqrt(2)
1.4142135623730951
