| - | Since my initial attempt at writing this program included the modulus operator, which had been quickly abandoned, I decided to revisit that since I now had a working program written in a manner I felt was more simplistic. What I realized that I was missing from my initial program was the factor (the number of times that 10 went into the integer). For example, if I declared the factor to be i/10 and R= i%10, then for an integer value of 25, R=5 and the factor=2, since 10 can go into 25 twice, with a remainder of 5. With this program written this way, the same mental math technique works for 3 and 4 digit integers ending in 5 as well, to compute the squares.
