36 (number) 36 (number) 36 (thirty-six) is the natural number following 35 and preceding 37. 36 is both the square of six and a triangular number, making it a square triangular number. It is the smallest square triangular number other than one, and it is also the only triangular number other than one whose square root is also a triangular number. It is also a circular number- a square number that ends with the same integer by itself (6×6=36). It is the smallest number "n" with exactly eight solutions to the equation φ("x") = "n". Being the smallest number with exactly nine
Integer square root which makes a general multiplication step unnecessary. Integer square root In number theory, the integer square root (isqrt) of a positive integer "n" is the positive integer "m" which is the greatest integer less than or equal to the square root of "n", For example, formula_2 because formula_3 and formula_4. One way of calculating formula_5 and formula_6 is to use Newton's method to find a solution for the equation formula_7, giving the iterative formula The sequence formula_9 converges quadratically to formula_5 as formula_11. It can be proven that if formula_12 is chosen as the initial guess, one can stop as
