It's Hip to be Square
  • # Challenge
  • A catalogue type challenge that simply asks: Given an integer `n` (where `n>=0`) as input return a truthy value if `n` is a perfect square or a falsey value if not.
  • ---
  • ## Rules
  • - You may take input by any reasonable, convenient means.
  • - You need not handle inputs greater than what your chosen language can natively handle nor which would lead to floating point inaccuracies.
  • - Output should be one of two consistent truthy/falsey values (e.g., `true` or `false`, `1` or `0`) - truthy if the input is a perfect square, falsey if it's not.
  • - This is code-golf so lowest byte count wins.
  • ---
  • ## Test Cases
  • Input: 0
  • Output: true
  • Input: 1
  • Output: true
  • Input: 64
  • Output: true
  • Input: 88
  • Output: false
  • Input: 2147483647
  • Output: false
