I presented a simplified method of calculating squares and

square-roots of numbers in my previous article.

Here I am presenting another version of finding the square-root

of a number.

1) Find the square of 7, given the square of 1.

2) 1^2 + (difference between 7 and 1) * 2 * avg of 1 & 7
1^2 + (difference between 7 and 1) multiplied by two time the average of 7 and 1
3) 1^2 + (7-1) * 2 * (7+1) /2
4) cancelling 2 in the numerator and denominator.
5) 1^2 + (7-1)*(7+1)
6) 1 + 6 * 8 = 1+ 48 = 49
Reversing the process, I want to find the square-root of 49.
Applying the above formulae,
square-root(49) = 1 + 48 = 1+6*8 = 1+(7-1)(7+1)
=7
In other words:
01) Find the square-root of the given number n
02) Subtract 1 from the given number, n.
03) From the remaining number (n-1) , find the factors for the number
04) Pick two numbers (say a,b) whose product(a * b) is equal to the number (n-1)
05) The difference between the two numbers ( a ~ b) should be equal to 2.
06) Then the square-root of the given number 'n' is avg(a,b) or (a+b)/2
1+ 48 = 1 + 6*8
then sqrt(49) = avg(6,8) = 7

Pls note, this method is intended to find the square-root of a perfect square.
I created it for my python project.

Happy scripting.
