Any math experts know what I'm missing here? [Solved]

I think I either pranked myself or Steve is feeling better and did it for me! Individual code boxes. I sure as hell didn't stay up all night making those. Weird. Fixed now.

Hey guys, binomial expansion as in, if you've ever prayed for death: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RD_Ybm86fu8

Okay, so the binomial expansion works for cubes, but as written won't do anything but cubes when I change the root variable to say 2, 4, or 5. So either I goofed up something in the algorithm, and amazingly it still works for cubes, or there is some more complicated factorials that need to be considered with other nth roots that i haven't figured out and applied.

In regard to decimal point, I have not bothered with that part yet. Just trying to get the digits for now, but mainly I'm looking for a long division (instead of approximation) process for nth roots (meaning all roots like squares, cubes, 4ths, 5ths...).
