So this call will always try to round None(the default return value)
And of course it produces no output since it prints nothing.
Are you sure that's actually what is in the book?
No. That's very much why I wanted a reference to the original source
of the problem.
Scott attributed too much

I tweaked it to what I thought was correct but when I test it I get nothing
back.
def square_root(a, eps=1e-6):
x = a/2.0
while True:
y = (x + a/x)/2.0
if abs(x - y) eps:
return y
x = y
round(square_root(9))
The way I tweaked it seems to work,
