For complex numbers, the principal cube root is usually defined as the cube root that has the greatest real part, or, equivalently, the cube root whose argument has the least absolute value. It is related to the principal value of the natural logarithm by the formula If we write x as where r is a non-negative real number and θ lies in the range ,

In arithmetic and algebra, the cube of a number n is its third power, that is, the result of multiplying three instances of n together. The cube of a number or any other mathematical expression is denoted by a superscript 3, for example 23 = 8 or (x + 1)3 . The cube is also the number multiplied by its square : n3 = n × n2 = n × n × n.

The new text would read: "In mathematics, a cube root of a number, denoted or x 1/3, is a number a such that a3 = x. All real numbers have exactly one real cube root and 2 complex roots, and all nonzero complex numbers have 3 distinct complex cube roots." DRE 18:01, 20 February 2007 (UTC) Sounds good.

The cube is the only regular hexahedron and is one of the five Platonic solids. It has 6 faces, 12 edges, and 8 vertices. The cube is also a square parallelepiped, an equilateral cuboid and a right rhombohedron a 3 - zonohedron. It is a regular square prism in three orientations, and a trigonal trapezohedron in four orientations.

The cube rule or cube law is an empirical observation regarding elections under the first-past-the-post system. The rule suggests that the party getting the most votes is over-represented (and conversely, the party getting the fewest votes is under-represented).
