A number can always be represented as a sum of squares of other numbers. Note that 1 is a square and we can always break a number as (1*1 + 1*1 + 1*1 + …). Given a number n, find the minimum number of squares that sum to X.
Examples:
Input: n = 100 Output: 1 100 can be written as 102. Note that 100 can also be written as 52 + 52 + 52 + 52, but this representation requires 4 squares. Input: n = 6 Output: 3Similar questions
