This PR is a follow-up of #121.

Issue:

A call on sqrt on a negative number caused it to return a -nan, and then it was casted to an integer, triggering undefined behavior.

Test Case:

Fix:

The sqrt call is only performed on zero or positive values.


@sammycage Thanks for pointing out that I had forgotten to initialize result with a default value in case we must skip the computation. If zero is checked without a threshold, we can introduce defects into the generated image (using my test case). That is why I added fabs(det) < DBL_EPSILON ? 0.0.

Best regards,
Manuel.
